On a stock D-jet 2.0, is there any benefit to going to header instead of the heat exchangers?I have the engine out, the exhaust off, and want to know the score.

I know that will loose cabin heat, but, well, it just aint that kinda car (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/laugh.gif) .

Do the headers weigh any less then the exchangers?

I have the old, rusty stock exhaust. Can I do better? I have read tht the stockers flow pretty well. But it is heavy as hell.

Thanks
