Well here it is finally got my replacement header from RRM - looks like they are sick and tired of replacing customers header due to flex pipe breakdown.

 

Sorry to hijack your topic, but I have some dumb questions about the RRM headers. I know nothing about exhausts systems...

Can the RRM headers fit on an OEM exhaust line ? Would there be any performances increase with only changing the headers ? Would the sound be different as only the headers are changed ?

Thanks

 

is that blood on your old header?

 

it probably the oil. hahahah

 

BLood? No. That was the gasket maker I used on top of the aluminum gasket coz there was fume leaking problem with the rrm header. Hopefully with my new aluminum gasket that I just bought from Mitsu and this new design will solve that problem.

 

Yes the the RRM header will fit 2008 and 2009 Fed Lancer. Regarding sound, I have the RRM Magnaflow exhaust, with the header the exhaust is quieter, but w/out the header my wife complains how loud my RRM exhaust is. GAIN? according to RRM its all on the top end from 3500 and up RPM. This is a 4-1 header -- unlike 4-2-1 that is better at low end.

 

Bring on the 4-2-1's Soul!

 

wow i had two difference headers b/c of flex pipe and they look nothing like ur old one.
flex pipe is wayy shorter

 

there might be variation between the 2.4 and the 2.0.

 

hey here in brampton, i have the rrm headers aswell, but what kinds of problems were you having with them?
