    Kasi my old car, a '82 mitsubishi colt, had headers installed and God who knows what... puro gauges kasi, eh. Oil pressure, oil temp, etc...

    Anyway, highschool pa ako nun. It was really fast considering it only had a 1400cc engine.

    That's why I'm asking kung ano tlga benefit nung headers, kasi baka yun yung reason kaya mabilis yung Colt ko dati. If it is, ipa-pa-headers ko narin yung car ko ngayon. Although, talagang mas mabagal ang engine ngayon... kasi City lang.

    psst.. sir, wag mo ilang ang City.. lalaban din yan.. ehehe.... :D

    pero be realistic naman.. baka naman kasi tinatapat mo sa mga SiR, Galants, or 200SX.. talagang walang laban yan.. 1.3L cars.. pwede pa....

    yung luma kong Colt kaya tumapat sa VTEC... 1.4 lang makina nun, ha... sayang nga lang... kumatok yung engine. I had to replace the engine, but after that, la na... it couldn't go as fast as the original engine. Kaya ayun, binenta ko sa halagang cellphone lang... hehe

    galing naman ng Colt mo kayang tapatan ang VTEC... depende rin kasi yan sa driver ng VTEC..IMO lang baka kasi mabagal magpatakbo yung may ari ng VTEC or me problema yung makina ng VTEC na tinapatan mo.. peace..

    OT: Yung Colt45 alam ko malakas ang tama he.he.he.

    di ko nga rin alam kung bakit mabilis yung colt ko, eh. pero i feel na mas maraming mods pa yun sa alam ko. kasi la naman ako alam sa engines, eh. pero yung 1st owner nun malamang pinang-karera nya yung colt... kasi puno ng gauges yung dashboard, eh.

    sarap nga i-hataw... sayang... bumigay yung engine dahil napasukan ng tubig.

    about the civic na natapatan ko... once lang yun. sinubukan ko lang. isa lang masasabi ko, magaling mang-gitgit yung driver nung civic... nagit-git nya ako to the point i had to stop kasi yung nasa harap ko tricycle na mabagal. after that, di na ako naka-habol.

    haaayyyy... kaka-miss yung engine nung Colt ko...

    most of the people i have encountered have griped about the lack of power of the civics... mostly because its power is in the high rpms unlike the toyotas ang mitsu... hence you have to redline the car.... if not.. parang mabagal yan.... baka lang nde sanay yung driver ihataw yun.

    pero galing nya mang-gitgit, ha... that was a few years back pa... nung unang labas nung VTEC na civic.

    yung Colt ko naman (my old, retired car) mabilis sa 1st and 2nd gear... sobra. Ang bilis pumalo ng RPM... pag dating ng 4th gear... la na... hehehe...

    sana yung City ko ganun din ka bilis... haaayyyyy...

    Colt mo ay in the first place ay mas magaan sa civic , plus , based sa claims mo na modified ito ng 1st owner . kung stock civic lang yun .... talagang iiwanan mo yun .

    hehehe.
    hehehe, kapatid kadugtong lang yan ng original statement ng 5Zigen company.

    Exhaust systems have been 5Zigen's flagship products, well-known for quality, stylish and performance. Exhaust systems are used on race cars and have proven to provide outstanding performance.


    5Zigen exhaust systems are also well-known for producing a deep and distinctive note, enhancing drivers' racing spirit.
    in addition to proven to provide outstanding performance statement, 5zigen is ALSO well-known for producing etc. blah blah.

    kapag muffler lang, very minimal ang gains. Not to mention, depende sa construction ng muffler (rear section only).

    kapag full cat-back or full turbo-back exhaust, I'm pretty sure na may gains. A stock WRX piping is only 2.5" and upgrading to a full 3" mandrel bent piping gives it a decent power gains.

    IMHO, exhaust alone will not give you a desired gains. But Intake, Header, and Exhaust goes well together...symbiotic relationship.

How does the exhaust system affect car performance?
