Ok, Does anyone know if you can buy just a rear sway bar vs the front and rear? Also, whats the deal on intakes and headers for this bad boy? Is anything any good out there yet, or do we need to continue to wait?

All Ive heard from the SCDyne headers is STAY AWAY from them!!! Wait for a better company to release one!!!

Yeah thats what I saw here as well. Does the SS have a downpipe like a turbocharged car? It would be pretty cool to put a bigger downpipe and high flow cat on, yet leave the stock muffler on as I like the mild tone it has. Besides that, I guess we'll have to wait for K&N to finish the intake. To bad there is nothing out yet. I'm jonesin

I think Moder Performance's MPx 3" exhaust (in production) will work fine. I believe it will go all the way back from the manifold/header.

Is that a full 3 inch from the mani back to the tip? I'm not looking to get anything much louder than it is now. I guess we'll see.

I think the SCDyne header is actually OK. The problem was that Adam (the guy at SCDyne) took FOREVER to get it to the people who pre-ordered (hard to say if it was all adam's fault or not, but it certainly made him look bad). I believe he has headers in stock now, and if you want performance NOW, that would be the way to go. JPK on the redline forums has one on his car, and is going to have a dyno sometime next week, and he already had a baseline, so it should be a pretty good comparison.

Sounds good. Lets see how he does on the dyno, and maybe I'll be ordering up a set. Any clue on how hard it is to install?

You don't want to mix sway bars. Both OEM or matched aftermarket.
