Headers, SR intake or Rims?

[tuner4life]

Hey i dont know what i should do i was thinking i could get some 14" rims or i could get a pacesetter 4-2-1 header and Short Ram intake. Please help me out on what i should do. Thanks

Start with the short ram if you want performance. Headers can wait until you can locate a set of DC's. There are too many testimonials of the poor construction of Pacesetter headers.

Rims should come first.

Negative performance before show. Get the intake then some headers. If you want Pacesetter then get them. I have them and there is no way I'm paying 3x as much for a name.

I am never buying pacesetter again there stainless cat is rusting ther muffler on the catback rattled sense day one I replaced it with a dynomax and their hewader fell apart on me and cracked

Well I painted my entire exhaust system with a ceramic paint to hlpw with the heat and any rust.

headers headers headers u will get more power, then when u get intake u will be taking advantage. actually, get intake and headers, they can both be had for muuuuuch cheaper than decent 15" rims without tires...

That will help with the outer surface rust but exhaust systems almost always rust from the inside out. Good try though, it should at least help with the heat it gives off.

That trips me out about exhaust systems. They'll ceramic coat the shit out of it or make it out of Stainless. That's great for the outside but like you said, the inside is what needs the attention. I don't know why they don't line the inside of exhaust piping, especially headers, with teflon. Flow wouldn't be a problem b/c teflon is smooth as a baby's ass. If anything, it might help flow. We use PTFE lined pipe & valves here at the plant for corrosive fluids. Exhaust vapor, especially if mixed with water vapor is extremly corrosive.

Maybe I should go get a mandrel pipe bender and start making PTFE lined headers & piping.

DC sports coats both the inside and outside with ceramic stuff

All right guyz i bought an intake today for a 92-95 civic so im gonna need some pionters for it o and the next think im probably going to get is the rims just to update the exterior a tad but thats probably all i'll do to the exterior besides lowering it and some small Misc stuff.

i did a 92-95 civic intake on my accord but i got a carb, but look in the search theres pics of mine posted i chopped a few inches off the filter end and stuff pointing towards the coil corner of the engine bay, works good too

oh yeah man what body kit is on that hatch on ur site? i got a hatch lowered and i want a body kit!!!

Go proformance first. I can't respect a car that could be called "all show, no go."
