yeah i know itd run wth just the slip on but the guy thts doing it for me said it wld b betr n id get alot more outa it if i wld run a header though....do u think a pro curcuit header wld fit it,cuz the slipon is made 2 go wth the stock header pipe so do u think it wld fit an aftermarket header?

First of all I can't read half of what you are typing. If I read everything correctly, you want to install a slip-on pipe on an aftermarket head pipe.

To answer your question, you first need to understand a few terms here. First is slip-on. The reason it's called a ''slip-on'' is because it's made to slip-on your stock header, hence the name ''slip-on''.

The only aftermarket header I know of that will work with a slip on is the FMF Powerbomb, it's the same diameter as a stock head pipe. Other than that, most of the aftermarket ones won't fit.

Also it looks like you need to go back to kindergarden and learn to spell...

I'm pretty certain the FMF headers are NOT the same diameter as the stock ones. The FMF slip-ons have an insert that goes in the midpipe to mount to the stock head pipe to take up the extra room. The FMF headpipes are among the most universal for this reason, so if you were to get one, I'd go with an FMF hi-flow. (not a fan of the powerbomb). I'm pretty sure the Pro-circuit and others use a different pipe for a slip on, than they do with a full system.
