I had Melrose LT headers installed w/ RT hi flo cats along w/ new wires & socks. I believe the cost was about $1800-1850.

I could live with a price around $1800 with install. But i would think a tune would be needed.

A tune is not needed. Nice, but not needed. Header costs vary widely, and also by whether you want cats or not. Install costs should be about the same.

If you have stock heads/cam...or a mild cam the lower cost TPIS or Ebay headers will work the best....we have two models of high flow cats in stock if needed.

I bought my headers a long time ago, when i was wondering if i would do them myself of have a shop do it, revextreme was the least expensive i found in the area.

you could probably save some coin buying them online somewhere and just having a shop install them.Its a double edge sword with these things, its great to work on the car yourself, gain experience and all that crap but knowing what i know now....no more LT installs in my future!!
