I was at the dealership and a salesman told me they were the same motor ...any help is very much appreciated.

Yes they are! I have Tibby headers on my '03 Sonata. Just get 03 2.7 Tibby headers (I found them on Ebay for $200 delivered) And they are realativly easy to install...considering the engine bay is a little bigger than the Tiburon. Took me half a day to do everything. Go to newtiburon.com and find the header install sticky and follow it. Some things are a little easier, again due to more room.
And my kit bolted right into the stock exaust system...minus one pipe hanger. I just did a comparison on gas mileage the other day...I was getting 360 miles to the tank...I get 410 mpt with the 2 stock mufflers, the a/c on, and a short ram intake. I rotated my sri pointing to the ground between the transaxle and brake master cylinder to get cooler air off the street vs. the under hood air temps.
If you need more detailed info, let me know.
