For a 2.2...

What is the best header and downpipe.. relative to cost, quality, and gains.. thanks in advance for positive input.

 

id say find a ss/sc mani (if you have an 05 or 06, the 07's come stock with the ss/sc mani) and downpipe. the stock mani's won't be as loud as a tubular and the downpipe makes alot of difference.

 

what about some aftermarket stuff.. like hows the CA header and downpipe, Vibrant (a lil $$), ZZPerformance.. ?

 

bump

 

pacesetter header is a bitch... you have some welding to do switching from 3 bolt to 2, but there is a noticeable gain in performance, not sure bout the downpipe, don't have one

 

yeah, i really didnt have pacesetter in mind anyway

 

my suggestion was with value in mind, with money as no object id go with zz mid length header and downpipe combo, but the last time i checked they didn't have any in stock and wouldn't answer my question as to when they will( posted in the vendor section). ive since bought a ss/sc exhaust mani and downpipe for much cheaper and am happy with it.
