I'm glad we pointed you in a good direction...

Kuruma Motoring on eBay FTW!!

You'll have that in less than a week if you pay right after you win, they're a kickass ebay seller.

 

I decided to wait another week or so for the exhaust and headers. I am probably gonna get the DC headers and the GReddy Evo II exhaust mentioned in the above sticky. I want to do the headers and exhaust all at the same time and I didn't have enough cash flow for both.

 

get the header, if you get the catback and the exhaust manifold is sitll as restrictive as OEM, you wont gain as much power considering your exhause flow is only as good as the most restrictive compenent (which is the exhaust manifold/header, andsince its attached right to the block it's first). It'll look good and you'll get perfroamcne and MAYBE some sound difference out of it. And DC is top of hte line sh*t

 

So I got my V2 and put it in last night. It sounds great and the car feels like it's breathing a lot better. I didn't have any problems, no check engine lights or anything.

Now onto the headers and exhaust, any last tips before I make a purchase?

 

maybe a high flow cat? they're not that expensive and should give around 3 or 4 hp if you already have header and exhaust

 

I was thinking about getting a high-flow cat. Has anyone had problems passing emissions with a high-flow cat? That's the only thing I am worried about.
