i'm thinkin' of installin' some dc 4-2-1 s and was curious if it's a straight connection to the catback or is there's a pipe in-between? thanks guys

 

c'mon there's gotta be one of ya that installed their headers themself!

 

Well, there is the cat...

Header---->Cat----->"Exhaust"

 

from what car is the headders from and if its basicly made for your car as on "year and make" its a straight bolt on

 

i plan on gettin' some dc ceramic 4-2-1 headers for a 2001 integra GS

Header------&gt;Cat-----&gt;B pipe-----&gt; Exhaust (axle back)

It's going to be a straight bolt on.... just be careful of bottoming out the car with DC headers

 

appreciate it, i do have a bumpy neighborhood so thanks for the heads up. thanks for the help guys.

 

exactly what he said

 

FOR THE LOVE OF GOD; there is only ONE headER on a 4 cylinder car.

OK smart guy, if you want to get technical... (edit: )

Exhaust manifold----&gt;A-pipe----&gt;Cat----&gt;B-pipe----&gt;Axleback piping----&gt;Muffler

I figured by putting "exhaust" in quotes he'd get the idea

 

Since everyone is getting technical... anyone know where the term header came from? I've always called it exhaust manifold til i ran into hondas and the plethora of owners calling them headers!

 

actually its exhaust manifold, aka upper a pipe, lower a pipe, cat, b pipe, axle back.

 

You mean to tell me that you didn't know that the piping in between the exhaust manifold and exhaust was called a catalytic converter!!!!!!!!!!!
Sell you gs and buy a minibus

it was a term used a little prior to muscle cars days refering to the group of pipes that come from the "head."

Is that not exactly what I said?

Im locking this for the sole reason that this is retarded Now he knows the answer, we dont need everyone chiming in and going "actually, the a-pipe goes to the collector which goes to the cat inlet...yada yada"

He gets it.
