rust free you say ?  Group: Members Posts: 16,375 Joined: 7-January 05 From: richmond, Va. Member No.: 3,419 Region Association: None  |
Over the years I have seen many on here use stock 6 exhaust headers on 2.7 - 3.2 engines. Seems to me they are a bit puny ( not enough i.d. to flow well ) on anything over a mild 2.4 (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) Am I right on this ? Assuming so what options are there for the larger displacement / horsepower engines ?

If you're going to drive you car winters in the salt and crap with raw uncoated steel I can see it. In a summer car that sees limited mileage, with ceramic coated pipes I really doubt you would ever have a problem.
Cheap insurance is to run a battery operated CO2 alarm, if you can't afford $35 then a colourmetric CO2 detector is less than $10 and will last 2 seasons. I've seen cracked an poorly welded SS pipes as well. All the commercially available aftermarket /6 exchangers have a weld inside the exchanger. |
