Alright fellas, i am really considerring to change my exhaust. Flowmaster 40 series is def. one thing checked in. But I have several questions and I hope you can help me out:
1) Do those Ebay headers any good? (suggestion about other places to get headers?) 2) Does it really worth putting a new header in if i am not looking for a high-end power? (some header reviews tell that results are noticed on high-end) 3) If I am gonna get new header and new muffler, is it alright to keep stock exhaust pipe? Or should I get a custom piping done with it?
if you don't go bigger with the pipping, as in stay 2.25in (or are the 2.0L 2in??), then some mandrel bent pipping will flow better than stock. So if you have the money, I say go for it.
As far as high-end power, means its higher up in the revs. Are you just looking for more torque? Headers should show improvement over stock in all areas, but mainly high end.
This ebay header says it adds hp and torque, and its ceramic coated! Looks too good to be true though, so I'd wait on some more feedback from others on this.
Piping is 2 1/4. I might get a hook up with making a custom pipe work, not sure yet
And i was looking at [Header][/http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/TALON-DODGE-AVENGER-4-1-95-99-NT-2-0L-STAINLESS-HEADER_W0QQitemZ220073645778QQihZ012QQcategoryZ33631QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem]
Just from what I have heard so dont quote me on this.....
Ebay headers are good , yes pacesetter or bosal are better ( of course named brand ) but also I have heard that that there is not to much of a difference unless you get a new cat-back , cam , and more. From what I think , the Ebay ones are like 80 dollars , that is like cutting the price of pacesetters in a little more then half in price. I to plan on getting the ones on Ebay. peace
I have the ebay ones on my 420a and i hate them. I've had to replace the exhaust flange gasket already and had to use a decent amount of gasket sealant to seal it.
this might be my sensor going but when i sit at idle for 5 minutes or more, my cel comes on and reads o2 malfunction.
yeah you see thats my issue. Some Ebay stuff are pretty much as good as know brands (like take CAI intakes for example, i love mine off Ebay and people say 35$ and 200$ intakes are pretty much the same).
So here we go with headers, Ebay headers compared to known brands is in really big price difference... to conclude that, now we have to sides of discussion: one is pro Ebay headers, and other is anti Ebay headers.
The heat shiled will be different from the one in the picture. I got it with heat shield for "water shiled" haha, and it works good, i drove through some really, really flooded roads and didnt drown my engine
And i really like it, gives the engine nice tone when u open up the throttle. Sounds awsome when u floor it from 3000 to like 4500 RPM
not bad , I have been looking at chrome intakes CAI . Also How far does the piping go. Just where the box is? that could not be ......Cold air.....or do you have a opening or funnel?
it reaches to the bottom of the engine but doesn't stick out from the bottom. If you would remove (if you have) the left fog light, you would be (should be) able to see the filter.
