so, i got the rest of my exhaust finished today. it turned out pretty nice and sounds great. i went with the stainless tsudo headers from ebay. we had to mod them a little bit, but not too bad. i also went with a magnaflow highflow cat and stainless vibrant resonator. the piping between these parts is 2.25, and then it goes into my 2.5" catback system with dynomax camaro style muffler.
i'm pretty happy with the results.
pics to come.

prices for reference:
headers - $140
cat - $55
resonator - $50
labor - $200
muffler - $65
tips - $40
labor - $250
total - $750

nice but :needpics:
& a sound clip

that sounds like a pretty good setup greg...... get some pics!

wow, $450 in labor to do header+exhaust? I had mine done (header/cat/exhaust) for right around $400 including parts and labor

Ditto on wanting pics and sound clip though!

~vR

any ideas on a sound clip? not really sure how that will work out. i may just have to use my digital camera for it. we'll see.

Lets see some pics.

pretty hard to see, but i have a youtube video coming soon.

hard to see but looks pretty nice. have you seen an increase in gas milage yet? could you notice any noticable gains?

it's hard to see an increase in gas mileage when you can't keep the pedal lifted. lol
definately more powerful. i was playing around with a gti last night. his girlfriend wasn't too happy. lol

here's a little clip for you.

nice!

meh, it had chainsaw potential, that's why you didnt even rev it up.

damn your header turned blue fast.

is your headers have a special coating on them? or is that just how they are.....

that's just how they are. they are stainless steel, and like oldsman said, they turn blue from the heat.

i didnt know they were SS..... cool though man :thumb: I can't wait till i get my full exhaust in, hopefully this month won't be as bad as the last for me..... by June everything should be coming together :)

What kind of tips do you have?

ractive stainless oval tips. you can get them at most places in pa that are supplied by keystone auto parts.

So what do you think of the Tsudo header? I never heard of it before and was wondering about the fit and quality of it..

^yeah i agree, did you have to wheld the 02 bung 180 degrees to the other side like the OBXs are?
