Thinking about throwing some headers on my 2012 Ram. I wanna make her go a little bit faster with them, but I don't wanna destroy anything in the long run. Should I get some and which ones do y'all recommend? Thanks.

Longtubes are going to give you the best gains. If you are on a budget, then take a look at the JBA longtubes. They are half the price as the ARH setup, but they are not available with cats. You can either get just he longtubes and have a shop build a mid pipe for you, or they also make a catless midpipe if you aren't worried about running without cats.

I was just going to keep my OEM manifolds, and midpipe/cats. Then re-sell the used parts prior to selling the truck :) I think you would lose less that way.

If it was me I'd go with the JBA long tubes and get an exhaust shop to make me a mid-pipe, or see if they can gut your cat out.

I just put on a glasspack last week, if I get headers will I need to adjust my exhaust system or get rid of the glasspack at all?

It will be louder than most people would really want to drive on the road while not attracting the wrong kind of attention.

If you're just looking to **** people off and give yourself a headache, then put LT headers on a glasspack.

The stock exhaust has to be replaced asap - look at these stock manifolds...pathetic.
