Thanks for your help guys and sorry for the oversight...
Sounds good!! Are you going to put an x-pipe in there? Make sure to let us know how it goes

I probably need to do an X pipe but for the time being I'll be doing it without I guess. Will keep posted though....

you could always run a dual in/dual out muffler with built in x-pipe to equalize the pressure.

For what it's worth, I've heard that running straight dual pipes w/o x-pipe the engine won't run as good and it'll sound wierd. Don't know for sure or from experience, just what i've read and heard. Good luck man

Well the headers went in fairly easily (for headers). Ran them to two single-in / single-out Borla mufflers and dumped them before the axle. Sounds really good - I'm very happy with it. There's a video here.

I would do this again in a heartbeat.
