Damnn....The Ractive 4-1 header weighs 16.2lbs lighter than the stocker.....So you get a combo of power and weight reduction......lol

 

[mini_FD]

well def. catch up in less then a week so i can get the header off your hands lol but for now i have to get to work laterzz

 

[mx-p5]

Sounds good man! I'll hold it for ya.

PM coming your way with my number.

 

[mini_FD]

so the header is basically out of the way... lol what full exhaust do you all suggest to get because i need to get them both done simulaneously? don't hold out

 

[mini_FD]

And what about that guys mp3 ecu were you saying earlier that it was for sell or if not where can i get one?

 

[mx-p5]

if you're up for it, and can hit up your bolts on the midpipe and header with PB blaster, i can do the header swap if you like.

As to exhaust, i recommend going with a racing beat catback, as well as a high flow midpipe.

I think protege garage sells a high flow catted midpipe in 2.5" as well as the Racing Beat exhaust

If your staying basic bolt on NA powered, 2.5" exhaust should be MORE than enough. 3" and you'll just fizzle out

 

[mini_FD]

i have hks exhaust right now Would that matter to the cat back system?

 

[mini_FD]

so its 450 for the racingbeat and I can take your word for your suggestion?

If you have the HKS is it a cat-back or axle-back? Cat-back is better, and if you don't have a cat-back. get custom piping done. 2.5" all the way to the Header

And what about that guys mp3 ecu were you saying earlier that it was for sell or if not where can i get one?

You can get in contact with him here and send him a PM. This is his thread! Actually his name is SpicyOrangeMSP

You've already got an HKS catback? Then you're good to go.

 

[mini_FD]

Forgive my ignorance but i just have the muffler tip and i still have both cats

 

[mini_FD]

Spicy is figuring out if the ecu will work out but there is another guy on the forum that has a Fsze motor and he's asking the same question.

Yes you can take his word for it. I've got one and it sounds amazing

 

[mini_FD]

So i should get custom tubing from my heads to my hi power HKS Exhaust? sorry i'm confused

 

[probin94]

Get the racing beat catback

 

[mini_FD]

And protege garage has a catback? because i saw the full exhaust for 450 and wondering he it will be cheaper. p.s. i'm on mobile internet

 

[probin94]

a cat back is a full exhaust. you might be confused. i think your thinking of the axleback portion. that would be just the muffler and the pipe from the axleback. a catback is run from the 2nd cat all the way back to the car. so yes it would be 450 for the cat back. if they do sell just the axleback portion im not sure what that runs cost wise.

 

[mini_FD]

Thanks for explaining. what would you do since i already have a great axle back
