Header/Exhaust.

[chris97pittman]

I'm going to get an OBX header with some Christmas money and I'm going to get 2.5" custom CB exhaust. How much do you think the piping will cost w/ a hi flo cat?

and on this subject, how easy is it to install a header and cat-back exhaust....would u say ud have to have a backround with this stuff or is it as simple as following directions...?

where the fu(k did that come from? well anyways, i got the obx header too(tsudo actually but its the same thing). my cat back cost $325 for the piping, muffler, and labor. if you already got the muffler, and/or your installingit yourself it will be alot cheaper. i just got the ERT high flo cat. its a direct fit, 2.5 inches, with all the right flanges and mounts. dont get a ebay "hi flow cat" if you need to pass emissions, they are just resonators, not actual cats.

and for the thread hijacker i didnt install my exauste(only thing on my car i didnt), but the header would have been quite easy had my cat bolts not welded themselves to the flanges. the heads broke off, and i had to drill new holes through the old bolts since the bolts and flanges were one piece. it took about 4 hours cuz of that, but otherwise its simple

Headers can be easy or a nightmare. MAKE SURE you have a craftsman or snap-on 6 sided 10mm socket when taking your stock manifold off. If you strip one, have fun. It might be a good idea to get a MAPP gas torch and some PB blaster too.

For just the catback piping it was about $100. I already had a muffler.

The header was pretty easy, PB blaster is a must.

whoooa here comes a noob question.... what the hell is PB blaster? cuz i didnt use any.

PB Blaster is WD40's big brother on steroids. It penatrates rust. The stuff is magic. For rusted bolts its a must.

PB blaster is the greatest. Like he said, it is what WD40 wants to be when it grows up.

I believe that WD40 is water based so it evaporates quickly, PB Blaster is oil based so it doesnt evaporate as fast.
