    I despise the strangle hold mosco..... Sacramento has on everything.

    There are ways to fly under the radar though.

    Zx6/7/12 here.

    I love the looks of a 14, yet to ride one... But I did ride a gtr14 and fell in love!

    My garage is a lot fun, helps that it's all high Tech and has some Haas.io

    The ZX12 must be a blast!
    The ZX14R is heavy (600lbs) she handles well in the twisties.

    12r is rated at 550 or so curb, full tank.
    Mine has a full titanium ackroprovic supposed to save ~30lbs.

    *curiously curb weight on the 750 is only 5 lbs lower.... But almost 90hp between them.

    I"m curious what options are there for headers, and what gains can be expected?
    I had Stainless Works headers, cats and full exhaust installed with their turbo chambered mufflers and my increases were: +30HP & +28TQ

    What other mods did you have to get those gains?

    How was the tone and drone?

    At that time the other things done to the car besides the Stainless Works goodies were: K&N CAI, 4:10 gears, and a 93 octane dyno tune.

    There's not much drone and I like the tone with the x-pipe and their chambered (quieter) mufflers. Ended up getting Megs 4" tips welded on.

    If you get headers, you should get them ceramic coated as well. They say it keeps under the hood temps lower, ect. If anything it makes them/keeps them looking really nice.

    Headers x pipe and no resonators.... I imagine it was pretty loud. I like the v8 sound.... But I hate tickets more.

    My buddies 03 is pretty loud..
    Not just cops looking at him loud... But CA ******** exhaust ticket.

    14~18HP/TQ NA

    On a FI car headers are a must. Only then will you see a 30+HP gain

    Your in CA. Neither Kooks or SW are smog certified

    JBA is your only choice! They make a mid length header with a bolt on X pipe that can be modified to fit a MM.

    Interesting....

    Best bang for the buck?
    I use mine as a high speed cruiser, trying to avoid gears, got the jmod 15k back when I rebuilt the trans.
