i want more power out of my 3.0 and iam thinking about buying some downey headers. i hear they make they truck sound bad. i got a cherrybomb on it. any suggestions on wether to buy them or not and if i do wht muffler to run???

 

Sounding "bad" is most likely just personal opinion and probably has more to do with the muffler and exhaust routing than the headers.

That said, I ran Downey headers on my 3.0 (and now on my 3.4) and had no issues with noise. I had a turbo muffler from Summit, and now run a Magnaflow. The Magnflow is louder, sounds more aggressive but has a mellower tone.

I think the CherryBomb is going to be very loud behind the headers. Whether that's good or bad... you (and your neighbors) will have to decide that one.

 

haha what do you think about run two cherry bomba one for each header?

 

It would be twice as loud.

Actually, you have to get both headers routed back together before the O2 sensor otherwise the engine won't work very well. There have been some who have done a sort of crossover for dual exit pipes, but I think reducing down to one is going to be your best bet for performance.

 

Don't waste your money. On a NA motor, exhaust, intake and all that don't do anything. I have it all, and have regretted every part of it.

 

ok thanks ill prob just run them back into one. i forgot about the o2 sensor

 

is there any headers that are cheaper than downey?

 

ebay?

 

i think ill just buy new set lol.. i just need more power my 3.0 uses alot of gas and idles rough

 

Well, headers will fix exactly NONE of those issues. If you get ceramic coated, they will keep down your engine bay temp though, which can be good.
