Shoved my car out of the snow from my Gf's place.. Started it...got 3 feet... spun the tires.. reversed it and put it right back where it was.
Summer tires + Foot or more of snow + up hill = Fail

d16 racin header... so what are you going to do about the catalytic converter/O2 sensor?
also... if you bought a no-name header on eBay... well, good luck

when you're broke you shouldn't mod your car... it's a pretty simple concept. if you want to mod your car and have little money, just save that money up until you can buy a quality part. If you ever want to know what the cheapest recommended brand for a part or cheapest way to do a mod while still doing it right, just ask and we can probably help you find something that will still be a good choice.
also, if you have little money, why waste money on parts that will probably break?
for about $50 more you could have bought a megan racing header that will at least be durable
If you put that header on, you won't have a catalytic converter, and your ECU will throw a CEL and put your car into limp mode. Limp mode= low redline, less power, less gas mileage. To do it the right way you need a catalytic converter from or for a 96-00 EX, and an O2 sensor extension wire harness. This will allow you to run without throwing a CEL.
