Since we didnt have the stock parts to do a comparison with victoryred06's vehicle this is the closest thing we have on hand.

This is from the essentially the same vehicle which is the saturn ion redline. This dyno is Stock Vs Our intake system.

bump means he also wants to know and it also brings the thread back up to the top of the list when looking at it since the forums are in chronological order.

i also want to know whats up with this header cause i want one and was unaware that it wasn't just a bolt on.

I just spoke to Chris W @ Weapon- R and he said that you have to cut approx 2-3" from the cat back. He said you do get the new flange and bolts /gasket.

oh ok that's not that hard. and if it comes with the flang that's even easier. is it a weld on flange? and i'm guessing that if it doesn't fit with the stock exhaust you'll have to modify your after market as well.

ok so eah if you dont have a welder you better make friends with somone who does or you have to have it professionally installed. but it souldn't cost $100 to cut the piece off and weld the flange. other than getting the car up on the lift if the guy is good should only take about 45 minutes. since you have to take the exhauste off to measure the whole thing.

if you want to do it your self i dont know what size ID our exhaust is but you can cut the long piece of the existing pipe to a little shorter than needed and find a piece of pip that fits inside the stock one welld the flange to the small one bolt the flange and extension to the header let the ne pipe and old pipe have sex then put an exhaust/ u clamp on it to hold it together. it would work but you may have some leakage.

so you can make up your mind Pay someone towards $100 or less to do it. or spend i'm guessing around no more than $15 (just in case you have to buy saw blades for your buddies saw you had to borrow since you never found the importance of buying tools when you were younger) and some time maybe a little blood and do it your self. it's up to you.

I dont know where your getting quoted but we have called 2 other local shops to see how much to shorten and weld on a flange to the exhaust system and we were quoted $20 - $45 dollars.

keep in mind any warranty you have with your catbacks gets vioded when modified

cutting the catback to gain a couple inches isnt a great idea
