Headers?

I've had bad luck with my header. It never sealed properly, no matter how many times a changed gaskets. It seems the bolts would always come loose. The car sounded horrible so I took it off and put the manifold back on. I sure noticed the power loss.
 
How can that be? MP3's stock have 140 h.p

That 4-2-1 one piece for our cars is sexy

the p5s had 130hp but to the wheels it was about 100-105. i dunno bout the mp3s but their whp should be around there as well.
 
yeah i was thinkin it'd be around a 20 h.p loss from crank to wheel. i didnt think it'd suck a good 35 away

Anyone ever tried the Vibrant header? I didn't even know this company existed until about an hour ago when GhostLinker showed me.

They don't have any prices displayed and it appears you'd have to find a dealer. Just wondering if anyone has tried them out and how they might compare to OBX or AWR.

Found them @ $399.51 http://www.gscmotorsports.com/products/?id=3355
You can also get them from:
http://www.jrponline.com
http://www.driverfx.com (that's Keystone. All the speedshops have an account with Keystone)

yep..
I highly recommend you getting your OBX from Ken(Captain KRM P5)
 
yeah, when will ProtegeGarage be back up and running? i have to start planning what i'm going to buy for spring time. i've asked him in a few threads but never an answer
 
yeah i guess i could but i'm not ordering any of my stuff yet. Nor do i know exactly what i want.
 
*does mind tricks* you want an obx 4-1 header.... you want an obx 4-1 header...
