Rep Power: 368 no emission?
HP 4-1 race header with "high flow" cat...
its a hassle to install but it gets rid of the restriction from the stock cat, furthers the length of the stock 4-1 setup, creating smoother exhaust exit... and it should move the powerband upwards... giving you decent gains in the mid-high end.
there's no 4-2-1 setup for our car. I duno how many times I've told people that.
you'll also need an o2 simulator so the engine light wont come on.. and the ECU will be feeding in the correct fuel map.

Rep Power: 368 you dont need it.. but it helps to rid the check engine light.. and it will definitely performe better.
hmm... search the threads, I believe diabloautosport or some site name that. sorry, can't remember. runs about $50 bucks.

Rep Power: 0 Yea, I would say go with the hp race too. I don't have one myself...hopefully after Christmas..but imo, you are going to bog pretty bad under 4k rpm. There won't be any low-end whatsoever imo...you get used to it though.

Rep Power: 0 Another option is the Kamikaze header. It's also a 4-1 style with downpipe. As far as the O2 simulator goes, like Capyoda said, you will need it to get rid of the CEL. You can order one from here.

Rep Power: 315 you could always drill a hole back in the exhaust and put in this stuff
oxygen sensor.
bung for your hole (that you drilled and can tap into)
