Single hammer slammers are out there boosted and even supercharged making nice number. I say go for it. I like the E over the DE myself because its a dying breed. Ka-T.org

HAHA. If your planning on turbo charging your car, I wouldnt buy anything not related to the turbo swap. Why buy a header and then be forced to get rid of it when you turbo your car? Same with an intake. I know for sure that he has the turbo manifold that you will need and those are hard to find.

Just piece your own kit together.
