Original header? Im sure you mean exhaust manifold. There is a difference between a "header" and "exhaust manifold".

correct me if im wrong a "header" is tubular piping welded together, a manifold is a cast peice...but im not sure. Then why are turbo exhaust parts called manifolds even when they are tubular?

you can sell the rest of the exhaust, wish you would have posted this sooner. I was looking everywhere for that downpipe. Called places and they wanted $151 for it alone
...so i wont it on ebay for $24.
If your selling it i may be interested in that cat possibly though.

a regular exhaust manifold is not high flow. it is made from the factory for a specific amount of air flow that is best suited for the engine from the factory.
You would think that the factory might have considered higher air flow, but the factory decides what is best to put on the car when released. things are considered, like mpg, emissions, etc.
anyway, a header is high flow: ported tubing, bigger tubing bore (some of them), all for higher and faster air flow.
A cat-back exhaust is also made for high flow, due to mandrel bent piping, bigger diameter piping, and high flow muffler. however, ppl think that a cat-back is great all by itself while in reality it's raping your engine unless you have correct intake components to help it out. you will notice a difference if you had no high flow intake with just a cat-back, and vice-versa.
im not sure y its called a turbo-manifold. and im pretty sure you can buy higher flowing turbo-manifolds. and im not sure y they dont call it a turbo-header. but, i was just splitting hairs lol.
