need to put some headers on my ka and i need to know if i should go aftermarket or keep it stock my ka has no emitions so that playes a role on the o2 sensor. if anyone has any suggestions let me know.



i dont have any headers on at all and yes i will need to buy some and yes i am going straight pipe:eek3:

not trying to be an ass, but emotionless headers suck. mine are happy and content. hah. but in all seriousness, search man. thats all i can tell you. theres probly a thousand threads on headers. but if you really just need a replacement just get a junkyard one or search the used parts section. or ebay if you just are in need of some. you need to be specific on if you really need some because somethings wrong with yours or you just want some to have them. seriously though all those search bars are your friends.

he might be italian as ferrari engines are emotional, they cry, they scream, they beat the shit out of other engines

Why not just one for the engine?

What is your reason for needing mutiple headers?

This thread fails.

Search button for the win!

Also thatguy's subtle mocking enthuses me.

Better yet, dudes name is fonix, yet he cannot spell or complete a sentence. Seriously fucking funny. If your into subtle humor.

For what??

are you gonna engine swap in the future? cause there a waste then.

are you gonna turbo in the future, cause you need a different kind of exhasut header for that too.

I would say stock for now if your gonna be streeting your car. But if you do some auto cross and drift, then get headers. they give ya a little more compared to stock :) and they sound nicer.


Eagle Rock??? where?

i gave neg rep to the guy who made fun of your spelling but misspelled "youre" as "your"

i had a obx header from ebay on my ka when it was na. it felt/sounded cool. i think it was about 150$. word

If your in Eagle Rock CA. Then you should come to the 626 meet on friday or one of the other local meets. Like the Plaza meet off the 60 on thursday??

Talk with peeps there, you can get alot of info once you break into the scene. Might take a couple times of going before people start really talking to you. Were not dicks, just dont wanna waste a bunch of time every week with someones whos not realy dedicated to the scene.

I drive a blue S13 hatch to the 626 meet, Im Eric Castro. If you go, and im there, introduce yourself.

You know you NA KA will be loud as fuck if you go complete straight pipe all the way.

Me, personally couldn't stand it and irritated me to the point where i wanted to swap in a catalytic coverter.

unless your planning to go turbo real soon, i wouldn't recommend it.
