Headers And Exhaust

[jfred2112]

i am currently shopping around for an entire exhaust system. i would like to see some dyno results for components on the k20a3, but can only find stuff on the b16. i live in indiana where we don't have to worry much about noise violations or exhaust inspections. so i can pretty much run anything. if anyone has any info for this motor please help out. i would like a deep sound not too loud. i plan on a supercharger in the future, so i would like something that will work good n/a and boosted.

Translation:

If you're a moron, look at Mugen and Spoon.

Comptech is decent, as are Apex'i, Tanabe and HKS- but I would stick to a Greddy system. They're very high quality, usually the quietest compared to other major aftermarket brands, and they're priced very attractively too. The Evo line models are very good.

see i remember a long ass thread from a long time ago where dan was telling us about how shitty the greddy system he got was. and then since then ive seen the thie welds break, they dont hold up over the winter, and they seem to rust like a mother fucker. i dunno

[jfred2112]

i can't have welds breaking. granted i work with the best welder i have ever seen, but i dont want to worry about asking for his help. i want to know mainly about the headers. i want to run a uego sensor so that i can constantly monitor my air/fuel mixture. so i have baisicly decided against a race only header. i would like to run with a high flow cat, but don't want to spend a life savings on a full system.

from what i hear, and i think resistance98ex said it a lil while back, when u run a wideband all the time, like the uego, they go bad rather fast compared to a regular 02 sensor. i wanted to run one also, but after i heard this i had second thoughts

spoon, mugen etc.. is too rich for most peoples blood. I love my greddy exhaust though. Its about the only expensive performance bolt on for my car.

K-teller exhaust = #1 in my opinion...stainless pipe...easy assembly if you have a welder, or knowone...and prolly the best sounding...they use magnaflow mufflers that dont burn out...and are def. cheaper than most of those big name exhaust systems.
