some performance parts make your car faster by making it more efficient

Na, dont feel like spending the money for it and I live in a half winter climate, so it's not worth it.

You actually felt a bigger difference in power with your headers than when you installed the 3.76 LSD?

Yup, but if you havnt done the mods I have then Im not sure if teh results will be same. I especially noticed my car is faster with 94 octane with my mods and adding the headers. My 3.76 is non-lsd but I dont expect the lsd version to make much of a difference especially when the car is already moving, our cars are too heavy for LSD to make a huge difference IMO.
