The problem is, when you put the header on, you have to get a converter from an EX as ours has the manifold and convertor as one piece. You also need a different 'B' pipe between the convertor and muffler.
Believe me, I considered it, but it was $600+ compared to $0

 

oh yea :doh: i didnt take into cosideration that the dx/lx mani's had the cat built into them so you would have to get another cat also, my bad.

 

:werd:x infinity

 

Might wanna check out www.inlinefour.com. They sell used manifolds. Not the best solution, but hey, it's better than nothing.

 

How does a cracked manifold sound? How can you tell?

 

sounds kind of like a puffing sound coming from the manifold. you can tell by looking at the mani by looking at it and seeing a crack.

 

also, you usually get a metallic grind-sound when you rev up high enough. Mine would make that noise around 5200rps or so. Sometimes this is misdiagnosed as a loose heat sheild, or it was in my case anyways.

 

so you're telling me, i can get an oil changed etc for free??

if you have an lx or dx with a crack in your OEM header, then yes. Free cap and rotor, oil change, plugs, etc.

 

Hey i just got my 96 del sol S (d16y7) manifold replaced for free and the oil change, plaugs, plug wires, and rotor cap. SOunds alot better and runs smoother. thanks for the info
