QUOTE(Rgreen914 @ Dec 2 2004, 02:29 AM) Last year, I bought a system almost identical to that one off ebay; it was sold by European Motorworks in Hawthorne. Don't know if they still make/sell it anymore but I seem to remember paying around $250 for the complete system; the bracket that holds the muffler is different and the merged collector is held to the primary tubes with springs. It came covered in some sort of zinc plating that had to be blasted off before the ceramic coating could be applied (another $100) to the stub tubes, pipes and muffler. Some day I might even install it but right now, I'm thinking of installing a pair of NOS heat exchangers that I also scored on ebay and then had ceramic coated. I keep collecting parts for the car but have lately lacked the motivation to go get the car at the mother-in-law's and drive it home to work on it (it's only the wife and me and the teener is our #4 car). That's what retirement and winter will do to you! Ron you probebly bought the header I sent back to them, I didn't care for the quality and the stub pipes looked like they had been fabbed by a 5 year old |

ahhhhhh, much nicer now with the new muffler, i don't feel bad letting the car idle in the driveway at 10pm (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)
engine needs a tune up (missing and bucking a bit) so i didn't get a chance to flog it to see how it really sounds when I open it up... |

Mueller, I have one of these on my 2.5l 4. I like the way it fits and sounds. Mark (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)
