Well, guys i got my car back form the shop today.. And now its in my garage .. Well, I was wondering how can u check if ur car has like XS headers..? Cuz snice i got my car already with rims and audio system so i am siting here and thinking he might have put headers on it too.. So how can i check if he installed headers??

 

open the hood and look down and check if they are there?

 

I did that but where can i see like the name of it.. Cuz on the top it doesnt say nothing but they not rusty so i am getting to the point that they are upgraded headers cuz oem headers would be rusty at 67k miles on it..

 

Stock exhaust headers are solid cast iron and look like one solid unit while aftermarket headers are stainless steal and look like 3 tubes welded together to make one unit. They look totally different.

 

There is a heat shield that covers the OEM headers. It does not always look rusted.

 

LOL, wuz just about to add that.

 

Stock:





Headers: (Comptech)



Other headers: (hard to see but they are the XS Powers)





my XS's had a name plate on them on the bottom before the cat.

 

Ok i go check it

 

Better photo of the XS's:

 

So....any update?

 

Nah i got the stock ones...

So here we go i am going for XS headers..

 

Damn it.. I dont have a Camera..

 

Check the meet forum... Maybe someone at a meet can snap a couple of pics for you:

The nuts that come with it SUCK..

 

Anybody could have told you that.

-So what's your bid again?

 

I am lucky that the seller is in NC like 1 hr of drive from charlotte..

 

You're probably the only person I know that doesn't have access to a camera.

 

Almost everyone has one at least on their phones now.

 

Yes i am a cheap ass Acura Driver

 

Seriously, I have a 3MP camera on my phone, better than any digital camera I've owned in the past.

 

I had a Sony camera but i dropped it on the floor and the lenses got fuked up..

 

OK....go out and buy a cheap digital camera and some headers.

 

I am going get a system first.. 2 12'S

 

Nothing like throwing a couple hundred lbs in your trunk to slow you down. I had a really big system in my Maxima. I had a single 10W6 in the CL and I thought it was good.

Also, if you need stereo stuff, I still have some stuff I took out of the CL. Amps, changer, eq, hu, cap.

 

do u have two front speakers?? on the doors?

 

Nah. Sorry. I sold a set of MB Quarts with my car because I couldn't find anyone that wanted to swap.

 

Damn.. How about the amp is it stock??

 

No. I have an Alpine V12 4 channel amp, an MTX 2 channel sub amp and a Soundstream 4 channel amp.

Also an Alpine EQ, changer and hu with flip out screan.

Voodoo Audio Capacitor.

1 10 inch 10W6 in box.

Boston Acoustics 10 inch sub in box.

 

How much got Amp and SUBS??

 

Translate that....

Which Amp and which Sub?

 

Well i dont know anything about systems so i am going need some help.. Which ones are the best one..?

 

I take it you will be looking to add subs to your existing stock HU. I would go with the MTX 2 channel amp and the 10W6. JL Subs are great. You can bridge it mono and get some serious bang. If you go with a pair of 12's, I would probably go with either the MTX or the Soundstream. I had the Soundstream pushing 2 12's with each sub bridged to 2 ohms and it worked well.

I think unless you upgrade the entire system, getting 2 12's may be a waste of money. It may be way too much.

 

So 2 10's??

 

That always cracks me up when people go out and do engine mods, but then they go out and get some heavy ass 19 inch rims and put a fat ass system in the trunk.

 

Hey i want some bump in my trunk :nice:

When i go to a track i am going to take the box out..

 

Easier said than done. A box should always be secured in your trunk.

 

Bling or Zing...

I'm more of a zing guy... I like sleepers (stock looking) with engine mods...
