I am looking into buying a header, test pipe, and exhaust. My mind is pretty set on the J's racing titanium 70rr single, because it has the 70mm pipe and titanium. My question is what is a good header and test pipe to go with this exhaust? I want to spend less than 800 on the header and less than 200 on the test pipe. Thanks ahead of time.

 

You don't need a test pipe for the 70RR - It's a headerback.

 

and since you'll be saving 200 on not buying a testpipe use it for the header and get a j's racing header.

 

I'd go with the J's header to. If you had a cat-back then I'd say go with the Hytech header/testpipe.

 

i just bought a Invidia TP for $90 shipped /w CEL fix just sayin.

 

Oh i didn't know it didn't use a testpipe, what if i want to stay under 800 still for headers? Do the dimensions of the headers have to match up with the 70mm of the exhaust?

 

The J's new is $1400 or so, so find a used one for a grand or so, or spend $400 on the PLM. The J's a 4-2-1 design and the last collector is 60mm. It's fine that it is not 70mm, it will mate up. The trick is, so you go from 60mm-70mm, you never want to decrease size.

IE, 60mm collector on the header, 70mm testpipe, 60mm catback. There is no point in having the 70mm testpipe in there when you are going back to 60mm for the catback. So the J's header will be just fine.

For reference:

PLM header:


Look similar?

 

J's header, and 70RR ! Go go go!

 

Alright cool so they don't have to match up in size. I guess ill either spend the extra money for the j's racing header or find a used one.

 

Where can I get the J's header for this price? I am seriously interested. I am trying to get the best deal that I can (aren't we all). The cheapest I have found is from Evasive, and that is selling for $1,550.
