https://www.cobaltss.net/forums/supporting-vendor-deals-group-purchases-133/vibrant-header-downpipe-high-flow-cat-sale-162758/

there you go, there is a deal, and vibrant by far is the header for the cobalt, nothing compares to its quality...NOTHING!

not CTI, not CIA, not hahn, not pacesetter, not CA v1 or v2, no OBX midlenght, not OBX shorty, nothing compares to vibrant quality and show all in one, and for the cost that kills the competition

nothing voids your warrenty unless the dealership can prove it was that specific item that caused failure

well it all depends on your future plans with the car. if you plan on making decent power via the tvs or n2o i would go with cti or clear image auto. if you plan on just running a mildly modded car you cant go wrong with the vibrant

What kinda hp gains are we talking here with a header, and will it effect the sound of the car?

Also, If i order a header, can i take it somewhere and have it put on just like that, or is there something else i need on the car before i can get one installed?

what makes the CTI and clear image one better? they are steel, vibrant is stainless steel 4-2-1 better flow than 4-1, and vibrant has beautyful tig not mig welds, not to mention for the entire cost it comes with a cat, doesn thave a cat as a option

Biggest BANG for your buck header is the ZZP Mid length header/DP combo for 299.99. DO NOT pay more then that for a header/DP. Anyone who wastes 699.99 on a vibrant for 1 more whp is retarded

whats wrong with a 2.5" collector? the op has no mods done to the car...i dont see a 3" collector being justified on a otherly stock car, even on my 2.2 sc running a 3.1" pulley on 42's i wouldnt put a 3" collector on the car

You'll gain atleast 10whp+ with the header and DP on a stock pulley. Those gains will increase when you go with more boost
