UPDATE ON THE LAST PAGE....
Hey guys I got it in! My car IS 100% completed. The header is a 4-1 design. The header is colored black and only requires modification to the length of the 02 sensors. Everything else bolts right up. The pricing will be as follows-- 1-9 people -215 shipped. Colored with black paint, and all gaskets 10-20 people -205 shipped. Colored with black paint, and all gaskets I can do the whole system back to the cat, but just pm me if your intersted. I got the header in, car runs great and pulls strong. PICS and VIDS on page 3. Send the money to jcamp13@comcast.net through paypal. I would appreciate 3% added onto the final price, b/c once again, Im not making any money on this! Thanks! We'll end the name taking on Saturday July 15th 4-1 Header, All gaskets included Only thing you'll need are 3 bolts,a spacer if needed, and wires to make your o2 sensors longer. Any exhaust shop will be able to do this and should have the wire, and accesories on hand! UPDATE ON THE LAST PAGE.... This post has been edited by pimped6gen: Sep 7, 2006 - 9:57 AM |

you said the sound is louder, is it a good deep noise or a raspy rice kinda sound? -------------------- |

I do have pics but they are only of the undercarriage wiring from the bottom o2 sensor to the o2 sensor before the cat back exhaust. I did not take any pics of the header yet because the shop took it out for a few test runs and by the time I saw it they only had enough time to have the black finish (paint) on the header which was flaking off. It was not the prettiest thing, but for you guys who want to save a buck, that’s the way to go. I will be putting on my header wrap either this Sunday or Monday and will be posting ALL of the pics then. I also have another appointment with the exhaust shop this Monday (July 3rd) to install my headers back to my cat (they ran out of time while putting in my header in, so they were not able to wrap my header or do my headers back exhaust yet). I will be posting pictures and vids of the exhaust sound once it’s completed. As of now I would rather not comment on the exhaust sound because I have no restrictions, but I will...
It is headers straight back, all my cats are gutted and no resonators. It obviously doesn’t sound like the nice deep tone that I used to have with just my cat back. Although, now it’s more of a raspy LOUD sounding exhaust. I will be letting you know though how it sounds with my header back to my new magnaflow cat. The exhaust shop told me that once I put the cat on the noise should go back to the stock sounding, nice deep tone but a little louder, with no raspyness. All in all this did not take them much time for them to do (about one hour to an hour and a half). They had to take the bottom o2 sensor, splice the wire and run the wire to my o2 sensor on the cat right before my cat back exhaust. Secondly, they needed to make the 1st o2 sensor about 1 and half inches longer as well. This again was easy, just splice the o2 wire and make it a little longer, plug it into the adapter and we were set. EDIT---I forgot to mention...header lines up perfectly with stock downpipe...only requires welding (obviously). I have thrown no engine codes and car seems to be breathing SOOO much better. I also got my dual friction clutch and fidanza flywheel in at the same time, so to me driving off the lot I felt like I had a new car! Revs seem sooo much quicker and it feels like the car wants to be boosted. It feels as if my motor doesn’t have enough power...almost feels like its asking for more, I even chirped 2nd today by mistake! lol. Now I understand why Pressure says that our cars love boost. Top end also feels much smoother; it doesn’t feel like the car is fighting you to get there. It feels like it wants to be there. I say this mod was something that I should have done a long time ago. I will be looking forward to Bigmeanbulldog55 coming up and getting one on and doing a write up about it. The next update will be this Monday (PROMISE)!! I will 100% be including pictures, and video if someone can help me how to do it. (I don’t know how to get vids up on the site?). I will be looking forward to this Monday, and sorry for the delay everybody, but I promise it will be well worth the wait! Edit---read last sentence of 3rd paragraph if you did not already...
