Can't decide which Header to get

[mini_FD]

apologize for being selfish... i hope the best.

 

[mini_FD]

So Im getting the jic magic exhaust on protege garage in about a week or two max. But after that I plan on getting the hi flow mani thats on street unit shortly after. anyone else think its a smart decision?

 

[mx-p5]

what internally are you planning on doing? TOO much air flow is bad for an N/A setup

 

[mini_FD]

i suppose i already have jdm cams in it right?

 

[mx-p5]

gotta pop the valve cover to find out.

Same boat i'm in

 

[mini_FD]

can we schedule a Maintenance after you and i get our exhaust

 

[mx-p5]

maintiance?

Like what?

And, i'm prob gonna be waiting a bit to get my exhaust

 

[kudakev615]

pro you know anything about the jic magic exhaust protege garage sells?

ive got it on my p5 and i love the sound of this exhaust. it is rather loud but with my long tube ractive header, cams, mp3 intake mani and ecu....it SCREAMS at the top end

 

[mx-p5]

i'm def. curious to hear the JIC on your car.

I HAD the magnaflow

 

[mini_FD]

your getting me all excited about the exhaust... i have everything you just mentioned except the mp3 mani... but is there a big difference in your mani then the mani that street unit is selling..

 

[mini_FD]

well still gonna find out about the cams on the jdm and ecu

 

[mx-p5]

my intake manifold is the same one you have, just has the VTCS butterflies removed and a mild port and polish done to it.

The one i'm selling is bone stock, great to work on and then swap out

 

[mini_FD]

hey pro if you have the jdm motor then is it n/a

 

[mini_FD]

and if it is then your light isn't on is it because mine is on and off but someone linked that trigger the the egr valve or even a bad cat or o2 sensor either way i can't wait to not have to see the cel orange light on the left

 

[mx-p5]

n/a is naturally aspirated, so, unless it's supercharged or turbo charged, it's N/A

as to a CEL, when it IS on, head over to autozone and let em scan the car and they can tell you what the problem is

 

[mini_FD]

i did but it didnt suffice with what they told me... they said it was probably my cai because i was forcing air but i didnt buy it. They all are lazy and don't want to be out in the summer heat so they said oh it's this. I went to two different ones but blamed it on the cai

 

[mx-p5]

it's not the CAI.....it MIGHT be the MAF though....

I've had both the AEM CAI, and now the Injen CAI which i converted to SRI and i've had no codes concerning that.

 

[mini_FD]

thank you for telling me that ha but if it's a jdm fs-ze then are you just going all motor again? any thoughts about nos or nx..? I've been contemplating after i have got everything done with a small shot

 

[mini_FD]

Whats a MAF

 

[mx-p5]

If it's ZE and the guy can source the ECU for it, we'll just have to see what the potential is N/A powered. Also, after talking with the guys at Corksport, to run full potential ZE, i'd also need the J-spec intake manifold and crankshaft pulley in addition to the ECU

Not sure how the ZE responds to boost, i thought i read with higher compression, it might be slightly more risky.

But, don't quote me on that
