I've got the 6 gaskets for the cylinder head and new nuts. They came with the kit.

So I just need to pick up the 2 gaskets for the mid-pipe and some backup studs although I'm in a Southern State. But best to have insurance.

I will probably do it and see what it sounds like, then just pull the trigger on a Magnaflow setup if I can't deal with it. I plan to leave my secondaries in, and I think Magnaflow replaces the resonator.

Hope the headers feel every bit as good of a step up as the 3SI did!
