If its a long header, it should come with a high flow cat, like the HP Racing header.

why go with APC? I think even OBX headers are better than that....and maybe same price if not a little cheaper...."you cant spell crap without APC"

yeah you will need an extension pipe for it. i had that same header which believe it or not lasted a long time and is still in great condition. When i got mine it came with an extension pipe. Bring it to a shop and tell them what you want and they can hook you up.

99.9% APC stuff IS crap. I have had no problems with this header though performed good and it didnt break, so thats an A+ in my book.

the main difference in was in exhaust flow because it replaces my catalytic converter. I have a LX motor which the cat is built into my stock exhaust manifold so by putting the APC one in there it replaces that whole system. It didnt give me like crazy hp/tq but you can feel a difference. for comparison my car stock ran in the high 16s low 17s, after the header,intake it ran low 16s consistantly.

no not exactly.. the apc header was made for the ex model. its designed to be bolted up to the cat converter using the extension pipe. you didnt get one with it so they will have to make you an extension from the header to the cat. do you have a pic of it?
