I am wondering if it would be possible to fab up my own exhaust system for my 1.8L engine. I figure i might be able to save some money this way, instead of buying a brand new one from AA or whomever and i'll learn how to make an exhaust as well. Just wanted to see what other people have done and how they went about it. Pictures would be great. I plan on getting rid of the heat exchangers if that helps out at all!
Thanks in advance everybody!! |

Now,
The primaries are all bent all over the place to ensure they are the same length, and they fit under the car. That is what is meant by matching primaries...notice they are different lengths in both systems and they are merging differently... That is all the R&D these guys have done on Dynos to test their individual theories... The 4-1 performs in one range and the 4-2-1 performs all accross the range...there are pluses and minuses to both systems and two schools that will line up on both sides of that arguement. These are the TWO headers available for the 914. There are other 4-1 systems available by different manufacturers, but the basic design is the same and the end results are the same. Rich |
