Best quality and performing headers
Best quality and performing headers For a '02 A4 SS stock heads & cam car with most all bolt-ons and 3.23's w/a 3200 Vig. Presently running stock manifolds w/gutted stock cats, LG Motorsports 2&3/4" Y, SLP Dual-Dual, 3" Flo-tech cutout in int. pipe....What longtubes will show me a nice HP gain, and still let me change back from off-road pipes to emission-passing Y w/cats that'll pass emissions? I want to keep the Dual-Dual. Opinions? Thanks. WJ. 
Re: Best quality and performing headers
Does Hooker make the setup I'm looking for, or Jet-Hot? Thanks. WJ.

Re: Best quality and performing headers I am very happy with my FLP's BUT, it is a bitch to get your oil filter out with them and the drain plug backs into the header when you loosen it. The guys at the local quik lube will run when you pull in.

Re: Best quality and performing headers Hate to sound like a broken record but FLP has the interchangable where you can take the cats off or put them on when needed.I have the Hooker LT's which make great power but ive heard nothing but good feedback on FLP's.Only down side is they are like $1200 for the set.

Re: Best quality and performing headers Yah, If you want to be interchangable you're stuck with FLP. If I had to pass emissions, I would just run good cats. BTW, I Really like my Thunder Racing headers.

Re: Best quality and performing headers Check in the sponsor section for the new y-pipe from Jet-Hot. It will work with the hooker or jet-hot headers, and I believe you can swap back and forth between cats and ory. However, the cats with this pipe are NOT what your smog guy is used to seeing. the are of very small diameter and fit inside a small bulge in the y-pipe. I think someone posted pics about a week ago. Title of thread was "Jet Hot Y not what I expected," or something like that in the External section.

Re: Best quality and performing headers Yes, I did see pics of these miniscule cats in a post a couple of days ago.....Do they actually pass a sniff test? I've seen bigger cats on a Honda powered pressure washer! I like their looks, though.... I'll check out the Jet-hot Y. Thanks. WJ. 
Re: Best quality and performing headers Up top, please. Thanks. WJ. Anyone running that new Jet Hot complete setup of headers, Y, and mini-cats? ('01-'02 F car) How is quality and fitment? Price? Thanks. WJ.
Re: Best quality and performing headers O.K. Dan. FLP's it is....Driving myself crazy is an old habit of mine, plus it's fun getting everyone's $.02 worth....People are saying that changing the Jet-Hot's back & forth from cats to race pipes is no fun.....Should've flanged them, no? Best wishes. WJ. :p
