What header to get ?

[Rob]

So I decided to postpone my Sube conversion.
I simply do not have the cash for it right now.

However, I would like to get a bit more power out of my
1600SP :eek:

So I'm looking at getting a merged header, with a fat-boy style muffler.
The CIP website lists quite a bunch, but they are pretty expensive.

Any tips for a header/muffler combo on a budget ?
I'm not too concerned about the quality, since it eventually will be replaced and I will not put a lot of miles on the car.

Thanks,

Rob.

Rob,

Not sure if this will help but how about getting some used DP heads ? I've seen original used sets go for about $30 US on EBay for the pair. I'm sure that swapping heads would get you more power than a header. I think the SP heads are the limiting factor.

Get a regular 1 3/8" street header setup with a muffler of your choice. That should help out some. If you don't want heat, then get J-tubes also.

Hmmm, Sandeep, you are a bad influence..... :D

The exhaust ports on DP heads are the same as SP heads, right ?
So I can get myself a header and swap heads later ?

I beleive both types of heads use the same header ... plus you could sell your old SP heads for about $30 US on ebay and come out really spending nothing ! :D
