I purchased a header from bad news racing, and after checking my purchase on their website i bought the one for the lsj engine rather than the 2.2, oops. Will it still bolt up to a 2.2 lap or am i screwed and have to sell this one and buy a correct fitting header?

 

You will be fine....

 

im waiting for the "but..." ha. I wasnt sure if the lsj and lap engines had like a different bolt pattern for the header or something like that. Thanks

 

Nope....

Same bolt pattern.

From every Badmab header I've seen they all looked the same.

Maybe contact Brad at Badmab and ask him if there is a difference. Regardless it will still bolt up.

 

Cool, thanks. I'll make sure i post a few pics and a vid when my exhaust is all done.

 

Nice.

I used to have a Badmab header. It's a great header for the money!

Enjoy

 

if you look on their site no matter which one you pick on the order it says 2.0/2.2/2.4

 

What year is your 2.2L?

 

Never mind, I just checked your profile. You're good to go since it's an '09. Thanks,
Brad.

 

yup 09 =p and the exhaust is going to be a bad mab header, zzp downpipe (2.5" catted), and custom 2.5" 304 stainless tubing with a magnaflow resonator, and muffler undecided

 

how are the badmab headers ? i hear a lot of mixed reviews like how they can rob hp. but also ive heard the sound of them and it sounds awesome lol

 

They don't have a "sound".... the muffler and resonators take care of that

As for build quality, they are hit or miss.

I had one on my car, and it worked great. It had nice welds, leak free flanges, and a clean collector area.
