My good friends over at Topspeed hooked me up with this header last year. I pretty much started abusing it from day one. A week later it was smashed. I've been driving around for about 6 months with it in pancake form. Last week it finally cracked, and it began to sound really retarded. I woke up this morning and decided enough was enough. I bought a new jack that is racecar low, and I put on the stock jdm cast manifold. Who's idea was it to make the cast header so ugly and heavy. It sounds better now, but i'm not sure if I lost all that awesome header power. Now for the pics.

Awesome carnage

My R on Fake wheels because i'm poor! I tried to make it up to her with some Ray's lugnuts. Good try?

 

You should avoid potholes better.

The roads are crap where I use to work, and they didn't get any better once I started working at my new job. Texas is one giant pile of horrible road made up of old, obnoxious, oversized belt buckles.

My car hates the cast mani. Is that what you are running? I'm trying to find a cheap 98+ spec oem itr header, jdm yo.

 

yeah i've rocked the cast for 5 years. Unbreakable.

The stock one probably flows better than that flapjack styled header.

 

i might be picking up a DC ceramic header that is pretty much the same.

what could/should i use to repair it. im pretty sure ill be getting it for free.
