Hi Cindy,
Tough break on the car. That's how my project started. Car quit. Time to spend some serious jing and get what I really want.
MSDS headers are the way to go. I personally own a set. Can't tell you how they work. My car is completely stripped inside and out. I have done about 3 years of research before I bought any parts for my car( 98 Mystique ).
I have spent almost $15,000 on aftermarket performance upgrades, and MSDS headers were in the purchase for all of the right reasons. You won't be dissappointed if you decide on these.
