Default Installed JDM header today, slight problem...

Well, i installed my JDM header today, and after i got it bolted up, i took it to a muffler shop so they could weld a bigger flange on my 2.5" cat. Well, they dont have a flange that big. Where the hell do i get one of these? ANy help would be greatly appreciated.

Call Mark @ http://www.landspeedracing.com, he can tell you the type of flange they use. I believe it is for a Chevy (Chevy 305 or something).

You talking about the triangular flange on the back? The shop *should* have those, since 2.5" exhausts are common enough on domestics and whatnot. Call around

If not just order from R&D or IPS.

OK, so the ID of the flange is gonna be 2.5 inches, right? And the distance between the 2 holes is 4 3/4", right? Hopefully thats correct, ill call around. THanx guys. Hey, Vegeta, no pix now, but its a white 95 GSR with 99 si wheels, no rear wiper, and h-t.com stickers on it if that helps.

Well i finally found the flange @ a local muffler shop, so its all hooked up now. WOOHOO, its WAY better than my crappy DC 4-2-1 setp i had before. Top end pulls WAY harder, but ill have some #s when i hit the track tomorrow night.

Your better off getting a high flow cat from IPS for about $170. By the time you get a flange and have a shop put it on your stock cat you'll probably pay about $100.

And the fact that your OEM cat flows About 1/4 of the amount of a 2.5" Car Sound Adding a flange to the OEM is a waste of money, you wont see the full gains from the header.

LOL, Ryan ran a 15.1@92 in the ITR. I ran a 15.011@95 in the GSR with crappy stock GSR tires. We only got 2 runs in cause it was busy as hell. Im going back wed, hopefully ill do better since my MPH was pretty high, but i had a 2.6 60 ft time.

Yeah, I had a crappy run. Couldnt figure out why till I pulled the plugs and the previous owner put some cheap plugs in. The plug in cylinder 4 was gone, no electrode or anything, feels alot faster with the new plugs now! Lets run again matt!!!!hehe
