test pipe. HUGE difference on my n/a and you dont get differences like that without turbo, lol.

got a 3sx DP and a custom tanabe single shot on it and it runs great, for another $500 or so, headers just dont seem worth it.

I don't have any numbers to support what I'm going to say, but I would imagine that the DP and cat would make the most difference.

I can tell you with 100% certainty that the DP and cat would be worlds easier.

+1 on the testpipe. I have a 3sx downpipe and testpipe and it sounds amazing.

Default Re: headers or downpipe and high flow cat

I'd also suggest the downpipe and high flow cat, our headers really aren't that restrictive until you start making big power. There's very few things you can do on these cars to get the power gain for the money over a downpipe and high flow cat.

I just noticed that it's a 95 VR4.

You can't use the 3SX headers on a turbo car (unless you mean upgrading the manifolds?)
