I am going to spend money on soemthing....lol
It will either be Rancho Quicklift shocks up front paired with their 9000XL's for the rear along with a front end alignment. OR a set of TTI Headers?
Now, the shocks whould give a much better ride quailty versux the very bumpy and wandering stock shocks. Along with that, it will set the front of the truck level and give it stunning looks.
The headers, being Longtube, will surely deter the dealer from doing much of anything that involves the engine/transmission...etc I don't have any issue's pulling them off before any major service work, but I don't plan on going them for ANYTHING unless my ecu needs a reflash. Besides, I have until 36kmi before I have to start bringin it in to them for the 5kmi check-ups to keep the Powertrain warranty. I'll only go back to stock say...if the tranny blows for instance.
So, is it worth the hassle and headaches to go through all that? it will be a very long time before I hit 36kmi as I have had the truck for well over a year and have 6kmi on it.
Headers are used and I'm getting a super deal. I just don't know what to go with????? Shocks won't effect anything as far as the warranty goes, so it's a toss up. Shocks all together with alignment will cost $600 headers are $900
Great deal on both???? What to do??

That price was for TTI Headers, New Oem gaskets, Stage 8 bolts, 02 extenders, Y-pipe with Magnaflow cats that have a bung'holio for the wideband. It's a $1400 set-up
But I've already decided. I'm getting the shocks. i just need to wait 2-3 more weeks and I'll be able to get them on.

You're not getting 9000xl's for the front of an 06+ for $78. For 06+ the price takes a serious jump.

really bullet???? That mods anonymous really didn't work!!!...
For everything you get with the headers if I had a little more cash I'd buy the setup, Im going to be looking at that here shortly and will be needing a good set of long tubes, the O2 extenders, 3"ORY, and a shorter muffler so I can retain the cats and fit everytthing.
Also I thought the TTI headers were considered as mid length not long tubes...

No they are full length and their merge collector is very long compared to Dynatech. Here's a link from Moes. The length of the collector is probably what threw you off since Dynatechs Primaries goes all the way basically to the Y-pipe with barely any collector. This makes the Primaries longer which yes does help but not as much as the firecone design. Mid-length headers have their coolectors pointing down to the ground because well, they are half-way headers.
