Msp headers! Help!

[fieldsdog]

Okay guys Christmas time is coming and my MSP needs some headers to go with the 3" stainless steel exhaust but I have had trouble finding the right kind. I prefer the 4-1 setup for top end performance but most sites that let you select your car to find parts gave me a single pipe that is supposed to be perfect for OEM replacements but I'm fairly certain that is not what I'm looking for. All help appreciated!

you need a new manifold/down pipe?

MSP = Mazda Speed Protege.... or so I thought........
I thought 4 Cylinder Engines came with a Header and not headers? Also you should have a "Turbo Manifold" in your 2003.5
(uhm)

I want to replace my manifold/down pipe with aftermarket headers. But I don't know which kind to get.

If you have a turbo then what you need is call a manifold, all non turbos, headers( they both do the same thing except one has a turbo attached). To be on the safe side and curb the wise cracks post a pic of your engine bay.

You need a turbo manifold. this would be a header

BTW that will not fit on your car because it is a header and not a exhaust manifold.

 

[bazooka joe]

so you have a turbo manifold...are you looking to replace the manifold?

a header would not allow you to bolt on you turbo
