Post Headers - Chicago Exhaust Shop

Can anyone help me, I need to find an exhaust shop in Chicago that will install my new MSDS headers. If it didn't require welding I would have done it myself. Do any of you know of headers that bolt right into stock exhaust setups for the 944na?

The Bursch header kind-of does... you still have to have a flange welded to the cat-pipe, unless you use the Bursch test pipe also... then it does completely bolt on.

You don't really want a header that bolts right up to the 2-1 stock system. The header is meant to create better flow all the way to the cat-pipe (or test-pipe). The original 2-1 (from the header to the cat-pipe) is too restrictive.

Good Luck!

Skip,
In your opinion, how unruley is the header and straight pipe combo (noise wise that is).

Thanks

i can give you my opinion and experience

it is very loud and sounds horrible....with the 2.5 setup i have....

as soon as my engine get rebuilt, im going to get a 3 " setup but instead of the straight pipe, im adding a cat and a muffler to quite the sound alot....
