So for this month I installed a short ram intake. My nezt goal is to get headers and a cat converter (of which both will be performance headers and cat converter) installed in to my car. In relativity to the difficulty of installing the short ram intake, how do these items differ? Also what were the more strenuous portions of the installations for the headers and cat converter. Refer to sig for car type.

 

what kind of intake did you buy? i had no problem.. headers and catylitic are not bad.. a little harder..

 

nice sig

 

just a cheap ebay short ram intake. Works great. I am iffy about buying a hi flo cat converter or hi perf headers from ebay. Whats your take on getting those from ebay? You know anyone who has gotten them from ebay? If so what were there experiences?

 

PS

can someone tell me how to do this sig thing? I tried doing it under 'my profile' but it doesnt seem to show up

 

there must be something wrong with the site because you should just be able to type your sig in the "sig" box, then press "apply", then press OK. and it should show up. but about the cat and headers, i personally wouldn't buy anything for my engine/exhaust off ebay, but there should be members on this forum who have bought ebay headers, hopefully they will respond. as for the cat, i have not seen anyone with an ebay cat. i would buy a cat-back (greddy, magnaflow, etc...), its really worth spending the extra money (if you have it).

 

For the intake, I would get a name brand filter such as AEM or K&N like...NOW! Those ebay intake filters a horrible and thats bad for your engine. Cat wise, the $30 high flow ones on eBay arent real cats, they are simply test pipes, made to look like a cat but there is nothing inside. I would go for OBX or Megan headers if you are saving money. Cat, go with a name brand.
