recommendation:
vibrant header/dp
pacesetter header w/LSJ downpipe

I have an ion, does that make difference as far as the header is concerned? And zzp vs. vibrant?

Vibrant in many people's eyes/minds is much better quality...I haven't seen either so I don't know. The price on the ZZP is going to be less than Vibrant for sure. Performance, I don't know. If I had money to blow, I'd go for the Vibrant, but since I'm cheap, if I go aftermarket, I'll be going ZZP mid-length combo.

Ion/Cobalt/G5, doesn't matter...they are the same for header/dp (at least I'm pretty sure they are)...the only difference I know of is the cat-back...I think the hangers are different or something along the lines.

The DP-CB flange is upside down on the Ion if I remember correctly.

Yea well I'm on the cheap side these days with this economy....on the other end, I raced a regular rsx and beat it pretty bad. Not to mention when he drove my car he got out and was like "Man I like your car." After that I was kind of thinking hmmm maybe its worth keeping. I can say one things for sure the torque is def. nice compared to imports.
