mts Posted June 17, 2008 Author Report Share Posted June 17, 2008 Still awaiting news on the headers though.... Ren is working on that connection. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ing-schu@online.no Posted June 17, 2008 Report Share Posted June 17, 2008 I saw them at Ebay recently for $168 buy now price. Must have been a bargain? Do you want me to start tracing those headlights? My swedish contact takes his time replying to the email regarding cutos' headlight; gonna phone them FYI I want to compare prices with the german source, which arguably is better due to lack of pitting from winter road sanding. But the swedes have a quality verdict where said picking is mentioned, I like such attention to detail. Not to mention avoiding Die deutsche sprache.

Not sure about the headers yet.... we can discuss those further. I want to know prices of headlights.... I will try and find shipping costs to Norway PM me an address. They are about $325 installed around here.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
///BHRpowered Posted June 17, 2008 Report Share Posted June 17, 2008 I'm eager to await results of headers and exhaust work, I may choose to go this route if they indeed work are these 2.5 headers for any car, or made for a probe/626/mx-6 etc, brand, price, details Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

///BHRpowered Posted June 17, 2008 Report Share Posted June 17, 2008 So any year 2.5 V6 mx-6/probe huh? and what about o2 sensors, 2 are on the millenia correct? do those come with it or will you be putting a new hole in? I found these which I like, cermanic coated as well, same thing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
///BHRpowered Posted June 17, 2008 Report Share Posted June 17, 2008 mts - please confirm the headers, some research has revealed it may be a 2.25 outlet, but some come with a precat attached, the factory piping from the headers into the main cat is 2.5...I don't want to go smaller http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/93-97-FORD-...sspagenameZWD1V this for example claims a 2.5" collector, so other then some possible increase from being mandrel bent (which won't be much since the pipes still have to fit) what would be the benefit? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mts Posted June 17, 2008 Author Report Share Posted June 17, 2008 The biggest benefit.... no precats and a high flow cat.... whereas the factory kit is more restrictive than having a feline stuck in your pipes... The inlet to my Magnaflow is 2.25" so if I go 2.25 all the way back... OK you still need some back pressure to properly run an engine. This can provided with pipe size and bends. Or you will soon look like those riced out Hondas that have black stains up the back of the car.... you know... the 2.0L engines with 3" exhausts... sounds like a Pepsi can instead of an exhaust system. I cannot confirm headers until I have them in my hands... awaiting contact from Ren. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

///BHRpowered Posted June 17, 2008 Report Share Posted June 17, 2008 hmm, but mts - the factory headers/precats whatever, collect into a 2.5" piping which goes into the main cat, main cat has a 2.5 inlet and 2.25 outlet, this is why people doing the 2.5 custom exhaust and high flow cat get such great gains because the cat is where the most restriction is.

mts Posted June 18, 2008 Author Report Share Posted June 18, 2008 The pre-cats are the most restrictive... and yes a factory cat is a blockage... but have you even looked through a highflow cat? MUCH DIFFERENT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
enginph Posted June 18, 2008 Report Share Posted June 18, 2008 Why the hell they drop from 2.5 to 2.25 in cat? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveSter Posted June 18, 2008 Report Share Posted June 18, 2008 Probly to increase low-end torque. Atleast on the 2.5, then they probly just wanted the same for the 2.3 and didnt change their design. -Steven Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mts Posted June 18, 2008 Author Report Share Posted June 18, 2008 The 2.5" collector is probably needed to accommodate the 1.5" lines that come out of the pre-cats.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
