what headers after exhaust install

Post by njdriver04 »

Would like some input,

i just put in a a large sti downpipe that at one point is six inches or more, don't know the brand but my friend said it is not a shitty ebay pipe but also the name is not known, we did have to drill weld a threaded piece for the oxygen sensor, from that we did or (did not delete the cat). haha and run three inch straight pipe into a magnaflow race series muffler with three inch inlet and 5 inch outlet. my god the car is quick when the tranny to be swapped to 5speed is not slipping and the coolant is leaking or dumping and the sound is soooooooooooooooooooooo gooodd. i want to put in headers after i fix the leak, are there any oe sti or wrx swaps or single port not work with um, if not what is a good relatively cheap stronger header to pick up. or what would be the best thing to do considering the exhaust work i have done so far. peace thanks...

The stock headers/exhaust manifold is fine and what I would recommend sticking with.
