So I bought some ebay headers, not looking for a huge gain, but just a little something..i know, i get what i pay for...here's some pics of them

 

wow, those pictures are huge, sorry about that...my first time posting...


how do i make them smaller?

 

lol omg they take up my screen and bleed onto the tv.

 

I have seen alotta ebay header go on my buddies cars. They all seem to be pretty good quality stuff. Gains were def noticible on my buddies old se-r. Flangles are huge, which is great, and welds always look pretty solid. Good buy man

 

is that thing crush-bent?

Doesn't exactly look crush bent, but there looks like the dia might change through the bends...

I dont think so, the bends are nice and smooth, and theres no noticeable decrease in diameter...if it is, then it's a damn good job...

 

just giving you a hard time, here's a couple of ways to resize pics

U can open then under windows paint... go to image, then sketch/skew and size them down then save them and reload to a website

 

is that your wallpaper?



they look good. install em and give us your feedback.

 

why did you buy a header if your going to be going turbo this september?

 

maybe he's not changing the diameter of his exhaust? who knows

gotta change the sig when i get around to it...from the looks of the finances, the turbo project will prob get pushed back to the spring...it all depends on how much money i make this summer [i'm in college right now]...so if i can make enough for the turbo, and books and spending money for next year, then i'll do it in the fall...if not i'll keep working during school and do it in the spring...

just wanted the header for a little gain, and just something to do for now..it was cheap..but it looks pretty good anyway, and yea i was measuring, there is a small diameter decrease, but its minimal, not like the pipe is creased or anything, its still nice and smooth...hell, anything has to be less restrictive than the stock header

 

That be some ugly assed welding, and the bends are crush bends. I have a feeling you would be better off with the stock manifold.

 

There does seem to be some slight diameter change in some of the bends and the sections where the exhaust flows merge could definately be improved upon.

 

bends dont retain their shape.

 

cant say i would have bought it - but i definitely wouldnt have posted it - but hey wtf do i know, its your money, i would have went the hookers and blow route personally

no way i'd be better off with stock, diameter loss at the bend is much less severe than on the stock, only about 1/4" circumfrence loss at the bend...which if your talking physics, is barely an increase in congestion for a pipe of that diameter...

 

you are a smart guy. my dc header has uglier welds than that. i think he got one hell of a deal. for under $500 i really am doubting you will see perfect roll of quarter welds.

 

that doesnt seem to be a bad header at all. then again it is an ebay one, not an an-R or bisimoto

 

looks good. hell, when i got my dc header i had to porth the flange a bit cause they didnt line up the flange-pipe well.

 

not bad for wat a 150$

 

sorry for my newbie question

where is the header located on the engine ?
