Finally got a header on my car to finish the exhaust off. I haven't found out exactly who made it yet, but my exhaust shop did some more work to it and put it on. I know they got it from www.hitechmufflers.com.au in Queensland, and It's either a Genie or Hurricane I'm pretty sure. Happy with the piping and my car sounds awesome with it now. I'll try to get some audio clips soon smile.gif It's a 4-2-1 as you can see, and I also got a new high flow cat as well.

Looks kind of dodgy at the moment because of the coating the steel had on it, but I'm getting it painted next week. And after that the head is getting a work over and paint job biggrin.gif

^^^ Nup, I think because it's a 4-2-1 (and there is only about 1" difference), each side of the header still has the same flow so it doesn't matter much. The engine is much more responsive from about 2,000 thru to 4,500 revs.. which is what I was aiming at with the 4-2-1.

SiK cheers (and yours looks nice!) yep sure looks like a bit of crush bend ... But I am not too stressed ... the flow in comparison to the stock header is still MUCH greater.

Header was $500 AUD, thats about $350 USD.

So exhaust system:

Header $500
High flow cat $250
Resonator, piping, Muffler $750

$1500 AUD = $1000 USD. I got the cat-back section and the front half done seperately so it cost me a bit more that it would have otherwise.
