[Passenger]

oh yeah forgot about the damn mid pipe.
What are you rocking?
i really don't want to trust megan but if it doesn't really matter i'll do it.

greddy evo tt catback

Hey dude just put on the rh on yesterday, feels great!
Used greddy spectrum elite axle back an midpipe.
only problem is that part where the little test pipe butts up against the mid pipe it only 1.8 inches.
That's kinda retarded, and where the springs an bolts go together there is a loud noticeable clunking during idle .
some eye candy.

looks nice...about the 1.8 inch diameter, you can make it bigger. I can't really explain it but I had my in-law do it for me as he has the tools...hahaha...

yeah i know how to do it too, just need a dremel. It's like adding hp.
Did anyone bust a street tune with kpro after adding this header?
Should i?

V.2

No dyno, sorry guys. It made a noticeable gain over stock manifold and test pipe.

Getting mine installed on 2nd of May. What diameter did you use on your midpipe to see a "noticeable" gain?

OBX vs stock? i have an opportunity to do a straight up trade for stock.. worth it or just keep stock?

yeah i know how to do it too, just need a dremel.

I had to do this with my DCRH also. The only reason I can think of for it is because it makes the flange stronger...

YES WORTH IT.
but these are not a legal header so if you get popped then you need your stock header + cat.

How long did it take you, an how much did you do?


SO ANYONE do a street tune with kpro after installing these bad boys?

I have K-pro but not installed and never had a chance to get it dynoed. You should do it.

[Twisted-X]

How long did it take you, an how much did you do?

Maybe a half hour of dicking around with a dremel with a side-cutting bit. I went down to about 1/16 of an inch away from the inside of the pipe. No problems with leaks so far.

[spartan]

awesome, im gonna give it a street tune with kpro then.
I really don't think dyno is worth it.
I wanna take that little test pipe out an dremel it but its a bitch to take off an a fat bitch to put back on.

I checked my obx rh vers 2 and my inlaw did a good job getting it up to 2.4 inch diameter on the bottom.

nice! I want to do that.
My header is still making an obnoxious noise, an it smells of fuel.
Anybody have this header with k24?

[T_Virus]

oh your K24? Well, I just sold my race header to J000stin last night and he has a k24a2 so hopefully he doesn't run into troubles and he took off his front sway bar. I think the noise you are hearing is probably because of your front sway bar. On my k20a3, I didn't need to remove or adjust my front sway bar. For the smell, it is common as it will take about 1 week or so.
