Header/catback

[sonyminidiscman]

ok, I might be a bit weird, but I hate having a 4 inch opening for my muffler.

So, if I just change the header, and not the catback, will it help?

it will help alittle bit... But you still have a restriction on your exhaust... Theres a bunch of exhaust that doesnt have a 4" tip well, they're just a bit more pricey...

its just the tip is 4" not the whole piping... if your not cranking huge amounts of boost and power I suggest you stick to a 2.25 to 2.5 inch exhaust and just run a nice striaght thru muffler...

If its all stainless, then it good price. If not, it should be less then $1000.
Don't put 4" tip, cops love them. Get a stock looking straight through muffler with a small tip matching the pipe size. Unless you're going torbo or SC, keep pipe size at 2.25" or 2". I lose too much lowend torque with 2.25" pipe with 4A-FE 1.6L. Get a highflow cat and resonator to keep noise down with a deep low tone.

Yeah, I am from the NORTH...... haha..........

Ok, header from ebay will be about 300 CND installed

OBX catback exhaust about 450 CND installed but its 2.5 inch for mid pipe

A universal "nice" looking, 2 inch muffler about 150(maybe)

Sewing it OBX muffler off and weld another one back on will cost 60 bucks

so, total, 960 CND......


But you say I will lose too much low end torque? I can't afford to lose anymore, cause as you know, I don't have much to lose
