Ok, after all the troubleshooting in the world. I found the reason to the loss of power.
The aftermarket Ebay header and downpipe has a opening at the connection between the header and the downpipe.
I thought it was a headgasket because when i sat and let the car idle I noticed bubbling in the overflow bottle, thats from my bad gasket in my thermostat housing gasket thats connected to the head.
I heard of stories where J-B weld works but I would rather have it welded around to prevent it from happing again. What welder would I need if the header/ downpipe is supposedly made of T-304 stainless steel with CNC?
