I'm looking at replacing the exhaust on my 2001 cobra. The headers on it are jdm by kooks. They appear to be pretty old and are leaking at some of the welds. I was looking at kooks or maybe american racing headers. I have the money for them but feel like spending 2k on headers and mid pipe might be a waste. They dont come coated. I could get the bbk ceramic coated headers and mid pipe for half the cost. I put the bbks on my 04 gt. I had no fitment issues. They bolted right up. They've been on the car for 7 years. The only thing I had to do was use a floor jack and spread open their x pipe to fit. I just feel like I could do a lot with the $1k I'd save by getting the bbk combo. Do the kooks and ARH make more power or something? My cobra has a t56. So it doesn't matter what headers are on it I should still be able to remove tranny correct?
