Got mine put on, I broke down and paid to have it done too. They said they had trouble with 4-5 studs so I don't feel too bad, that was the part that scared me.

Definitely feel a little more power, took it up a highway grade that normally had to fudge the pedal a little to keep speed up, not anymore

A little louder too, but not obnoxious, have some flavor of flowmaster muffler the PO had installed.

All in all, im happy, looks almost like factory stuff down there, and seems to be running great.

Glad to hear you're happy with them. I've noticed a good power increase in mid-range around 2000 - 3000. I run the stock exhaust and the Banks raised the sound level a little but not much. Just sounds "healthy".

Been sitting on the fence for 5 years deciding which header to buy, Well I just pulled the pin with the deal like you guys got. I just hope they were worth it. I only have 47k miles on my v10 with no studs missing yet. Store my truck in the winter. Our truck is mainly used for towing our toyhualer.

You find pulling the toyhauler easier with an increase in mid-range power. What year is yours and is it an auto trans. I pulled my boat (3 axle trailer and 12k boat) and found a much better mid-range power band while changing gears in the manual trans.
