    what's good about that?


    Sorry i just have no idea on these stuff


    thanx N.M
    No worries!

    The cat and the secondary header is one piece so it needs to be cut.

    The welds restricts airflow from the head. There is quite a large weld which sits inside. Reducing/eliminating this would increase flow

    would be better off doing a custom headers instead??

    Or the OEM header is good enuff?

    Depends on your budget and what mods your after. OEM header is not bad, but can be improved. In no way am I comparing it to a Toda header etc....but then again modding the OEM header wont cost a few weeks wage either!

    The OEM header is a properly made stainless steel header with mandrel bends, so i'd say it aint too bad!

    Steve, I'll put something up as soon as I get my roster tomorrow. Cant organise something when I dont know when I am available

    Soon mate, soon......

    In short....NO!

    Heres an idea of cost! Its a rough guestimate but I'd be quite close!

    Mugen header with cat $2500ish
    Toda race header (no cat) $1500ish
    Buddy club race header (no cat) $1300ish
    Maximworks header with cat $2500ish
    SSR raceheader (no cat) $2500

    Basically you'd be spending $1500 upwards to have a set of headers modified with a cat!

    Working with my $100 per KW principal......fail unfortunately, money better spent elsewhere!

    But this is my personal opinion
