got a header off a 8G in the junk yard today.....what size exhaust did you guys use to get the best performance...i think 3" is too much but you might know for sure...

Stock is 2.25", I wouldnt go above 2.5" for anybody running a stock car.
k cool....thanks alot....do you know how much more i will gain if i get 2.5 with a high flow cat???
Not much untill you start doing mods that will push more air through the motor.
hhhmmmmmmmmm....maybe need to ditch header and find a eclipse down pipe and get turbo???? u think??

putting a turbo in the car and all the other parts necessary would yield better results than just a header and other simple bolt ons

Thats the sticky on what you need to turbocharge your 4G64.
A turbo will not disappoint you and you can get your turbo setup relatively cheap if you shop smart. Majority of your parts are basically from a 4g63 and pretty much bolt on. Good Luck!

Sorry but i really didnt understand the point of you getting a header from the 8G for the 7G. Was it an aftermarket header or stock header.
not sure if its stock or aftermarket, just know its better then a manifold. it was there so i just got it....it was the only G in there that had one. but there are a ton of G and eclipses in my yards so its no big deal.....if somebody needs a five speed i would be more than happy to help. i can get a price from the junk yard. ill pull everything out and ship so if interested pm me i go to the yards every other weekend.
<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE(1997greengalant)</div><div class='quotemain'>just know its better then a manifold. </div>
Uh-huh?
How come?
Manifold is for turbo cars, header is for n/t.

clutch master cylinder
slave/clutch release cylinder
I4 Tranny
Think you could find those and give me a hard estimate shipped?
thanks.

both are exhaust manifolds
it is a true header, i just dont know if mits put any headers in from factory. its not important i know i will get better flow with it, i am leaning towards supercharging rather than turbo..
anyway, galant got speed i will write down what you need and i will check next weekend to see what they have...if they got it i will get it and you probably pay for shipping and can have it, that kind of stuff i usually get for free...sort of :ironchief2: i will go either sat or sun as i need alot of stuff for alot of cars...i will put your stuff on top with mine

alright thanks. https://www.thegalantcenter.org/styl...lt/biggrin.gif
supercharging the 7G........you'd be the first :wink:

i dont see the real point of SCing a 4 banger...i mean the power you lose isnt exactly worth the power you gain is it...be more beneficial just to turbo...
hmmmmmmmmm..i'll think about that. thanks guys for all your views, they are a big help in the decision makeing
Yeah, but you won't see anywhere saying "turbo header"Quote:

I agree....I thought the 8g headers dont fit the 7g! I mean if it did, more people here would have headers on the 7g instead of farting around with RPW. I think you waisted your money homie. Did you test them? Do they actually fit? And if they are not aftermarket, what makes you think you will get better air flow from these?

interesting question, any answers.
we will find out... the 8g had a true header on it.... but once again. its like me im using 1st and 2nd gen 3rd gen escort parts three diffent motor's and my 88gt header works prefectly on my 97 spi motor. and 93 1.9
i dont see why it wont fit...its the same 4g64.....i'll test soon and post results
well the bolt pattern is the same...but i think im gonna find turbo instead.

<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE(Mindless)</div><div class='quotemain'>The 8g header will bolt up but you need to be aware of:
1) The DP will not work so you will have to get one custom bent. Or if you can weld you can buy the bends and flanges and make your own.
2) The header might rub the oil pan. I say might because I have an 8g header on my car and iy did rub the oil pan when I was trying to put it on. The header had to be bent to clear the oil pan.
There's other stuff but I can't remember right now. </div>
we knew that the 8G headers will bolt up to a 7G head, but it's the whole downpipe situation that discourages everyone. and just because they're the same engine code doesn't mean anything, hence 6 and 7bolt 4g63s

exactly. there have been headers for the 1g eclipse that fit the 7g way before they came out with 7g and 8g headers. we knew they fit but the whole downpipe situation scared everone away.
yea i would buy after market headers for a 8g a bolt on my car if i had the money to get some custom exhaust done.. its just not worth the money for the hp gain that you prob. wouldnt even notice..
and some people have proven power losses with a header.......Quote:
