$70 for the flex
$500 for coated headers
I dunno what they want for the cat or the whole combo. But ya dont need it anyway. I used a universal flex and bought a carsound cat off ebay for like $30. I actually spent about $570 for coated headers, flex and cat.
Sounds alot better than $720 for uncoated headers with a flex IMO.

The gains that i have noticed among members are almost identical. The performance part of it really isnt the issue. Its the rediculous price thats upseting.

They want 850 for coated, with flex/cat, I don't really want to spend that much. I'd rather get uncoated if I needed the flex/cat combo, but I'm not going to buy uncoated headers.... I think I'll go for the headers with the flex, but not the cat, and get that somewhere else.

Flex & Cat: 349.15
Raw headers w/ Flex & Cat: 699.10
Coated headers w/ Flex & Cat: 846.10
Raw headers: 349.95
Coated headers: 499.95

Personaly i think thats a good way to go.
With the flex they dont list it on there site as a seperate item, you have to call them to order it.

FORTEEN3GT · 08-12-2004, 08:53 AM

hey goofy..

the flex pipe and headers form your down pipe...

all you need is to weld this to the cat!

trust me... buy the 499 headers and 75 flex! you will be set.

coupe · 08-12-2004, 01:11 PM
