i am new to this so take it easy me......i was wondering if it was to much of a pain to get a full header for my 01 zx3. how many exaust mods will i have to do??? just wondering if it's just worth it over a shorty header with an aftermarket cat

easier install with race header. no mods NEED to be done. it is worth it for horsepower wise and its cheaper. but it is illegal

oh yea, welcome to the forum

A Race Header should bolt right up to the flexpipe, but i should warn you, the header is a pain to install from the start.....especially if you don't own a lift. [] It may not be worth it if you don't know anyone who can slide by the header in an inspection, and it could get costly if the (Kl)ops figure out you don't have a Cat....or any enviromentalist for that matter. It's not a pain to get one, unless you consider dropping over $300.00 on a header.....but it does make you open the hood more @ your local gas station. []

ive heard its a real pain in the ass to change headers. i havent changed mine yet but will in the very near future. if ur wanting a race header then u'll need the header, flexpipe, and exhaust of ur choice. if ur goin' shorty, then ud need the header, flex, high flow cat, and exhaust.

edit: and if ur gettin a race header, then ud also need o2 cheaters as the race eliminates the cat and it will throw a check engine light.

i don't have to go through deq where i live. would i still have to get an o2 cheater of some kind if i got a shorty?

 

[Odublar]

nope....cause you'd have to still have a cat....unless you got a custom pipe extension to reach the flex....

if you don't have a cat, yes....otherwise, no.
