    I was just wondering what the differences are in the 08 from the 09 as far as upgrades? For example, will the 08 header fit the 09, or the exhaust, intake, etc...

    Almost all currently available aftermarket parts will be a direct fit for the 09.
    Headers are the same, intakes, exhaust, bulbs, shifters, wiper blades
    It's the same block on the outside, but the bore, stroke, electronics, and other internals are different. Nevertheless, your outward bolt-ons (sans Turbo) should be a direct fit.

    Im not sure about the header. I phoned RRM to see if the 08 header would fit my 09 gts since there was a guy in town selling one. They told me they were different.
    It confuzzled me because they have the same part number on the website.
