just got the headers today..Cant wait to put them on..

one question, with the EGR removed and it not being tuned out yet, how bad is that going to mess with performance and mpg? Im getting a retune from Justin, but that will probably be another week.

I didnt really notice any performance decrease but I also did quite a bit at one time. I did cai, lts, egr delete.... I did however see a serious mpg drop.
