Thread: cheap header recommendations?

Yeah, so my header has holes in it.. totally rusty.. in really bad shape.

Not looking for anything fancy as a replacement, i plan for this car to be a daily driver with maybe a little bolt on action here and there. But i don't wanna go too big and lose my low end torque!

But i just got the car 3 weeks ago and i'm already $800 into it, so avoiding a multi hundred dollar header would be nice right now

Any recommendations for a cheapish header? I was thinking about the NOPI, aka #1 header because it seems to have the EGR stuff on it, whereas some cheap headers don't have that.

Maybe a stock one off a '01-'00 would work? Or is the roller rocker motor drastically different..

Any opinions are appreciated.. thanks.

Oh.. and this was what i am considering

SSAC is what alot of people run, decent header for the money.

x 2 my daily driver has one on it. It's hard to find an actual SSAC anymore on Ebay but just make sure it has the 2.5 inch secondary.

the header you have on ebay is one i used and was very very good.

Looking for a 2.0/2.25 4-2-1 header, something mild. Don't wanna lose much low end torque.

I can find SSAC's on ssautochrome's site but they're ~$200.

the one you posted above is best deal
the secondary goes all the way to the cat

Hm.. these look nice. But they are 2.5's. That seems a bit much. Our stock piping is 2.0in, correct?

SSAC too. And its better design, proven to work better.
All the brands.. are same as SSAC, just different names. Check ebay there are 2" and 2.25" secondaries too!
