Header & Test Pipe
I just wanted to get some ideas on whether I should go with a 1 piece or 2 piece header.
I want to get a test pipe, not sure who to go with. Megan makes good stuff and I was thinking of going with one, but would it make my car throw a CEL or run bad. I know it will be louder I've heard cars with them and I'am ok with that.
I can get a set of 2 piece 4-2-1 headers on ebay from some company called Tenzo R, not sure good they are but its like 24.99 + 25.00 shipping not bad, but are they really that much worse than a real name brand.
Just trying to get some ideas.
Also what would look better on a 94 EJ1 coupe milano red,
Rota Circuit 8s or Slips and what type of tire looks best on those rims, my car is lowered to.

Re: Header & Test Pipe (ACE_94EG)
you really think a $25 header is gonna be good?
All test pipes are gonna give you a CEL because the ECU thinks the cat is not working.
About the rims, everyone has different opinions but both will be fine.

he is rocking a 94 obd1 car. no cel for a test pipe because car wont know the cat is not there because it does not have an o2 sensor after the cat.
to the op, do you have the stock d series?
EDIT: your sig says you have the z6. the header you want to buy will only work for a little bit. the welds are cheap and bad and the walls of the piping are thin. that cuts cost which makes it possible to sell a 25 dollar header. it will be okay for a very short time and then will rust through or break and you will have to buy another one. and FYI, you will not gain a noticable amount of power with that header/testpipe combo.
