becareful about fake headers, most the time its the same as stock size piping just blinged in chrome to sucker people into buying it... check with the collector size and all that before purchasing.

i think he already bought it......when it comes to important parts on your car, going for an off brand or no-name is not usually a good thing......those welds might not be too strong, and ill bet the ceramic coating is already about to take a dump.....but ya never know....at least it was only $50

as for gains, u might feel a few more horsies, but only if the collector is larger than stock........wider runners =&gt; stock sized collector = teh gay....

i got a ?.....why did u choose dual exhaust on a 4cyl....ur only loosing power that way......

reason why i went duals on a 4 cyl is because my original plan was to install a CL type S engine and tranny but i figured that im gonna have to custom fab like a ****...so now that i changed my mind and the duals are already on i decided to just go for show quality and all that..

as for the header...its actually a obx 4-2-1 with a 2.5 collector and its ceramic..not polished for bling bling...oh and also reason why i bought this for $50...the guy i bought it from doesn't own a 6th gen anymore so he sold it to me cheap since i had a 4 cyl 6th gen

i know people are saying why im doing all these aftermarket parts on this to a f22...well parts are cheap..lol..but i aint gonna go all out i just want the basic things nothing is gonna be internal and its all gonna be for looks....soon as i get my header on im not touching the motor anymore....everything is gonna be external (air cylinder set up..19 inch rims...rear suicide doors....bodykit...repaint..etc)
