Default SOHC obx header....


just did an ebay search.........and found out that obx makes headers for the 00-02SL1. now my question is.......would you be able to feel any difference in performance gains on an SOHC if i were to buy an header???
probably not - lmao!!!

but i wanna buy it so i can be one of the few to have it on an 02SL1. i thought about swapping the head....but im going to leave it alone and use her as an daily. id rather save up for an project car.......something worth modding.

all suggestions are appreciated.

thanks.

Would getting a header for it not be modding?

you'd probably feel a little difference, but it wouldn't make the car fast by any means. BTW, SOHC exhaust was always 8 bolt, so I don't see why it wouldn't fit all years SOHC.

yeah....it would be considered modding. but.....$220 for an obx sohc header is not bad. thats why i want to get it. i know it may not improve performance that much.....but any improvement is good.

if anything........this will be the very last thing i would do to my car. so im going to go ahead and buy it. i have a nice lump some of cash in the bank. but.....im going to purchase a project car sometime later this year.

im stuck between ol skool supra or and civic hatchback. something that can go well over 400+ whp. idk. we'll see.
