Yes...i must pay this import fee over the price and the shipping cost.

Do somebody know if it will work if i mount the cat. senor in the exhaust pipe, or will it also give engine error codes?

Without a cat you will get a code unless you get an o2 sim. The anti fouler trick may also work.

looks sexy... still dont like that whole loop at the bottom, where the rear headers have to expell down and in front before the front headers.... Dat's Y pipe is a direct flow.

might have to pick one up... lol Dawgz?... ha hahahaha

^ not really

for our cars, this is an equal length design that works better for our use, since it then uses an actual collector to get exhaust from both front and rear headers instead of just dumping them together (which works, but not as efficient as a whole)

using the proper collector will equate to more low-end torque as well as sound a lot smoother. In fact, if the design utilized and even longer collector design, it would be even better for the powerband.


this is basically THE design for our cars (presuming that it is a direct copy of the JPP headers setup) for shorty headers. Otherwise, the XERD headers are really the ultimate design for all performance
