MMW headers - Need some advice

Okay so I have these MMW headers sitting in the box, I see everyone posting videos of them and they sound amazing.. But I'm not sure if I want to keep my car. Should i install them for the hell of it or sell the headers? Will I be more likely to keep my car after I install the headers?.

First why do you want to sell the car?

Depends how long you're going to keep your car. If not long..it isn't worth it because the install is just as much as the headers unless you can do them yourself by all means go for it. It's just one of those hard decisions you have to make on your own lol good luck!

I don't think it's going to make you want to keep your car. Go fully cat less and get a tune. That may make you want to keep it.

I agree you may like it after you install them. I love my car. I have the headers and almost everything you can do to it. The only thing would be a custom tune an nitrous and im done. it fast as hell for an NA, but if you are think about getting something else and not keeping the car a long time then, I wouldn't put the headers on it. It's not worth the money.

You should see if anyone in your area has them installed so you can go for a ride and see the difference.
