    Exhaust headers

    I've hunted for quite some time now and cannot find any 4-2-1 exhaust headers for my 1993 1.8 Corolla other than a few from OBX and Arospeed. Does anyone know of anything else out there that is reasonably priced?

    check out ebay, dude.....only thing is that the headers on eBay only come with the flange type O2 sensor hole....all you have to do is get a thread chaser to put threads in the hole and cut off the studs for the flange....works fine....still leaks a lil at the joint, because it's just a flat gasket and only three studs....but it can't be helped....i've had two so far. busted the flex section on my first one while playin in the snow and now the second one is goin because the car is too low....speed bumps are a bitch.

    btw....i have a 97 with the 1.8L engine.

    That's exactly what I was trying to do, but it's hard when not many are available. Has anyone had some headers fabricated from scratch? (I'm sure this method is a bitch on whoever is doing it and also your wallet).

    so wait till someone makes a header for the car. if you get OBX you'll be rather miffed, for lack of a better term.

    what do you mean wait till someone makes a header for it? this car is eleven years old. if nobody else has made one for it, then nobody else is going to even consider production of them when there are plenty of civic losers out there to feed parts to.

    random precision - so talk to your local speed shop and have them bend/weld you one. seriously, if you go with OBX you will regret it.

    that's all i can say, really.
