hey i just recently put in my headers about a week ago. and the difference i noticed were that the exhaust was definately louder, the check engine light is on with a code of P0402, and the car feels different. like its not pulling like it used to pull.

Ya you lost torque.
03-30-2010
What other mods do you have? Make sure you slap a CAI on there

your powerband moved up, so you dont notice it anymore.

read his sig...

I like my low end torque, this is why I will never put headers on my car. Some ppl like that power more at the top. Im running a 3" pulley with a plog, rockers, ported tb/sc and a ssic with the biggest fmhe I could fit on the car KR free with 18-19* timing.
03-30-2010
yeah i got a wizair, headers, green coolant, 180tstat, 3inch downpipe, and 2.5 cat back which i wanna change out to fit properly.
03-31-2010
LOL Green Coolant is a mod?
Gotta add that one to the list then...and what Nick said...you shifted the powerband to higher RPM's for all out flow...therefore...that low end you felt with the stock manifolds is now gone. So drop to a 2.8" now that you have supporting mods.
03-31-2010
LMAO.... naw i don't consider it a mod just had to put wat i did to the car. but wow u serious. i can get a 2.8 now???? iono sounds risky. i still need the 104 autolites and a pcm ooooooooooooor just the autolites then drop to wat size pulley????? then get a pcm for that size pulley....
03-31-2010
Yeah...get a 2.4" while your at it then...that was sarcasm...and you have long tubes huh?
LOL
03-31-2010
naw, not long tubes. just sounds good. but headers regaurdless. . .
03-31-2010
so hood
03-31-2010
who me????
04-01-2010
I thought I read somewhere that this happened to someone else and they had to do some other mod to get their torque back.. or maybe I'm just imagining things... I don't know haha
Maybe a tune would help?
04-01-2010
oh yeah definately a tune but im not sure if i should drop the pulley to a 3.4 or get the over kill first . . . . not sure. and if possible id like to find out more about the mod to get torque back up was it a high stall torque converter? i just love the feeling of being pulled back in my seat.

I honestly can't remember what it was that the person said fixed the issue. But I think a 3.6 pulley in 04+s are the same as 3.4 pulley in 97-03s.. correct me if I'm wrong
So probably just start with a 3.6 then go with the PCM, and see how it goes from there.

Its called a tune and pulley drop.
04-02-2010
After putting my headers on, i sucked the chrome cap of the filter into the throttle body, possibly that is what happened to you.
04-03-2010
He done no wat dat iz son shiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiz
Something must had been wrong with your filter then...
04-04-2010
sure thats all i wanted to know. a tune and a drop will get my torque back. but the tune might tale a min to get. . . *wonder how much a dyno tune would cost*
