lol i knew not to get the black one, but just another question, does the pace setter come with a downpipe? because i want to get a high flor ca eventually too b\c i dont want it to go from less restriction at the headers, to alot of restriction at the cat, to less restriction at my catback.... and i wanted to fab up a down pipe with a cat in it myself?

The Pacesetter header has a pipe at the end of it that "slips" over the stock exhaust just before the cat converter. You can clamp or weld the header to the stock exhaust at this point.

We have these in stock

Yes it bolts up but there is still exhaust pipe between the flange and the cat. You have to cut the stock exhuast just before the cat converter, this way it is very emmisions friendly

so if i was to order the header, what would i have to do to get it installed, i have the 2.2, i would later get the corsa touring catback. so would it be easier to get the head and the catback at the same time? if i did that would there be anything else i would have to get like a downpipe or anything?
