4-1 Header - D16z6

[Doughboy]

I picked up an OBX 4 into 1 header from an ebay seller in my area for $120 no shipping or tax. i really wanted DC but i got anxious. anyways will I pass smog with this in Cali. Or should I just wait and put it in after my registration and smog in 3 months?

Other mods are CAI and Greddy Evo Exhaust, its a 95 coupe.

Just swap it out before inspection.. or better yet, sell it to someone else for the same price you paid, then save up cash until the inspection- get your sticker and put on a DC header. You'll be the same as if you planned to wait for installation, but you'll have a much better part on your car and you'll pass inspection next time without worrying too.

the 4-1 header from DC sports is not carb exempt, only 4-2 from what i know. As far as getting a DC sport, I just dont feel like forking up the extra dough if im going to swap in the meer future. (Sooner or later basicly.) I just wanted a little something meanwhile. The head isn't on the car yet, still stock. Thats why im playing with my options still.

Well, definitely try to get something CARB exempt if you can.

i say dont worrie about getting a dc sports header. keep the one u have, get ur car inspected, then put it on. Whats the point of buying a dc one for 400 bucks then going out n spending the money on a swap.

ok, I guess you can say I wanted "say so" I wasnt to sure if what I wanted to do was the right way of going about it or not. Carb exempt is good, but not I have to sacrifice any extra power I might get out of it.. Thanks guys
