New Pics! Kamikaze & Venom!

Ok well I posted pics a few days back and they sucked so here are new pics and some pics of the venom.

As for the review, I can definately feel the difference. my 0-60 time is the biggest difference. Also the sound is A LOT raspier. I think that it sounds good when you really hit it. It looks good and is simple to install. Except the fact that it doesn't come with the nuts necessary for the connection from the header to the exhaust pipe. Other then that it's a great product and a great buy. http://www.bigjoshracing.com

It's a DX. The Kamikaze header replaces the cat on the DX/LX.

Nope. Kamikaze doesn't come as a 2 piece.

tommarow I am going to the track. and for the o2 question yes it is for the o2 sensors. My exhaust rattles now because the header to exhaust connection isn't great. Didn't line up right.

Tommarow I will have some times. And then next saturday I will be going for time slips.

you really should fix that connection between your header and exhaust ... otherwise you will have a leak and your car will not perform as well as it should ...

the wiring isn't long enough ti sick it inside the car. Although adding a little wire wouldn't have hurt I just didn't bother with it. Plus, it's not like I change it all the time, just when I am at the track.

About the header connection. There was no way to fix it. I'm taking it down to the muffler shop on thursday and seeing if they can do something with it to test it out. Other then that, it's what they delt me so I have to playw along with it.

on another note, the header didn't actually fit up to the exhaust perfectly. Kind of off centered. But after some force and some cusing I managed to pull it together.

I don't see why it wouldn't fit ... if you are talking about the bolts not lining up, to fix that, you should unbolt your exhaust and just jiggle it around until they fit ... then bolt it up and run your exhaust through the hangers ...

Yes my check engine light is on.

And the problem was not whith them lining up.

The old header (stock) had two nuts welded into it. This is where the bolts attached the header to the exhaust. When I got the kamikaze, it was just an opening without any type nuts, therefore I had to get some of my own but it just want a tight enough fit.

So today I made my own little contraption and everything seems to be fine.

Great, not quite as much as a noticible gain as the header but it still knocked off .2 of my quarter so...
