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

***update***

Picked up the finished header parts today. They were put in an acid bath for a couple of days and then ceramic coated inside and out. Blew me away when I picked it up this is going to look awesome under the hood...

I only got one quick snap of them because I was on my lunch break and running heaps late ... luckily the boss was away today so I got to chat with the exhaust guys for a bit biggrin.gif

That really thick part on the bottom section is a flex joint.. They coated the whole lot and it was done really well... I was bending the flex joint about 5-10 degrees each way and there was no flaking on it.

Everything will be finished by tomorrow lunchtime (supposedly) so I will get some pics tomorrow night. I am so stoked that I'm gonna be able to drive again! I never got to feel what the exhaust was like because the clutch was slipping bigtime... and I have only gone without the car for 2 weeks, but I understand what some of you swappers went through now smile.gif
