Sorry to bring up an old thread but i was thinking of getting hurricane headers for my na6. However, i can't seem to find any conclusive as to whether these headers are worth the money?

If running std exhaust & cat then probably minimal gain. If already have intake, full exhaust, then will probably add a few kws to peak, and a fair bit more to mid range.
Only you can answer if this is worth the money for you..

For NA (6 or 8) I would say extractors gain the most, so if you can't afford to do everything at once, starting with them will still result in a noticeable increase in response.

I also noticed a high flow foam panel in the stock airbox.

Hi.
If you can afford them go Racing Beat at least they have some R & D done and surprise surprise they actually provide test data.
