Headers
Saw on quadratec.com borla headers for my tj, at $478.95! Not sure if this
price is high or not for headers, but are they worth it? How much power can I expect? Also, wouldn't I have to change the rest of my pipes to get anything out of it? This jeep is the first vehicle I've owned that I've started working on, I've really learned alot but I just have no experience with "performance" headers... Seems to me that after the headers I would have to upgrade my entire exhaust back to the end... Troy |
Re: Headers
Hi Troy,
It's a fair price for Borla's name, but you may buy them for a hundred and thirty bucks: http://www.1aauto.com/1A/ExhaustMani...P1390094/24498 They're designed to connect to your catalytic converter which you probably should leave in place as it holds another oxygen sensor, and would screw with your computer and SMOG laws.

Re: Headers
O forgot, if I did replace the entire exhaust, surely there should be
something done to the intake? But I've been told the K&N is crap, especially since I'm sure I'd clog it up with mud. I can't think of anything to do to the intake. Anyone?

Re: Headers
Hi Troy,
Your stock setup will pass more cubic feet per minute than your stock cam will ever use. K&N filters do not clog in races like the Baja Score One Thousand, that's because all the dust passes through them and they just replace the sanded engine at the other end. If you want more bounce than the average bear, reprogram your computer chip to use more fuel with this machine: http://miller.spx.com/data/DC02-07A.pdf God Bless America, Bill O|||||||O mailto:-------------------- http://www.----------.com/ Troy wrote: > > O forgot, if I did replace the entire exhaust, surely there should be > something done to the intake?
