Sup guys! I'm looking to buy some headers for my Z! Which of the main ones available fits the best? Also looking for an exhaust/muffler advice...I'm looking for a system that won't be too obtrusive at highway cruising, but still is free flowing enough for performance gains...2.25" piping from the header back seems a good compromise, 2.5" seems like it might cause a bit too much resonance...your opinions please :classic:


What else have you done in the way of "performance" mods. Simply putting headers on and making the pipe to the rear larger won't gain you much at all and I doubt if you will notice it. You'll hear a difference and think you are going faster.

You will need to install a resonator between the header and the muffler to stop the drone.

I suggest reviewing the threads noted above for a 2.25" dia. systems that I used on an early 260Z. The header is no long available but the exhaust components can be purchased and customed fabricated to meet your needs. If you decide to use a 2.5" dia. systems, I have Borla S.S. pipes, muffler, tail piece and clamps for sale at a very reasonable price.

Good luck.
