Re: 98-02 Headers, custom y-pipe and electric cutout

whats the advantage of the "custom" ypipe?

Re: 98-02 Headers, custom y-pipe and electric cutout

nothing particularly except that i built the additional pipe where the electric cutout fits.. plus i'm sure it's sealed, works and FITS. I just said custom because that's what it is..

Could you measure the header collectors for me? "the size of the pipe where exhaust is flowing"

Re: 98-02 Headers, custom y-pipe and electric cutout

ok.. header collector? the individual pipe that goes out of each cylinder? the diameter of the hole?

Re: 98-02 Headers, custom y-pipe and electric cutout

the gasket size. as in how wide(2 1/2, 2 1/4) is the whole from the headers to the y pipe

Re: 98-02 Headers, custom y-pipe and electric cutout

ok just measured.. the part where the 3 header tubes merge into one is a little over 2 inches in diameter

Do they need to be "cleaned" before installing them on any 98 - 02?

Re: 98-02 Headers, custom y-pipe and electric cutout

externally they look great. the electric cutout will need some wiring.. internally, not sure to what degree things get cleaned. I mean, I just took it out of my car.. I could put it back in as it is and it'd be fine

i'll take pictures up close tonight.. it looks dirty.. i mean... it's been under a car for nearly a year.. but it worked till the second that I cut the cords.. an exhaust shop will be able to reconnect for you.. ahh you're the high bidder.. i saw you bought a magnaflow exhaust.. that's what I have :).. it's raspy up high but has awesome numbers in respect to hp and flow.. it sounded great with these headers.. if i remember correctly, these headers were 6-800 brand new ( i didn't buy them new). I could be waaaaaaaay wrong.. i just heard that RKsports were more expensive, yet more prone to leaking if you don't get the right gaskets.. but if all things work well, then they rock.. you should be happy! No pics of it under the car unfortunately :/

NIce I'm selling my magnaflow this weekend to a member on this forum. I want to get another loudmouth exhaust. Should really sound good with a dual resonator and the rksport headers :)

Re: 98-02 Headers, custom y-pipe and electric cutout

awesome buddy.. for sure.. I had paper gaskets and they worked fine... but i HIGHLY RECOMMEND.. getting the gaskets from the company that viper04af sponsors.. www.turbov6camaro.com HIGH QUALITY gaskets.. too make sure they never leak.. your call.. i just want you happy :)

Re: 98-02 Headers, custom y-pipe and electric cutout

Yea I'm gonna end up getting the abbot gaskets. Are you including the header bolts? J/w because I was planning on buying some new studs anyways. Also, how hard are these to install compared to the pacesetters? I haven't heard of any clearance issues like I have with the pacesetters as in a few misc. pieces being hard to clip back in.
