Has any one seen this... creative compacts has just started caring it and its cheaper than the dc sports header and appears to preform better... at meganracing.com

It dynoed stock power at


After install it dynoed at

does it throw the CEL?

 

It says it doesn't on the website

 

looks pretty nice too

 

"Header includes a High flow PreCat so the car does not throw a Check Engine Light (CEL)". This is right off of creativecompacts website. Hmm that looks like a pretty nice peice, the stanless would look nice with my intake.

 

Yeah I bet it looks good once it's gone through a few heat cycles too!!! I guess when it comes time to do emissions (3 years) I'll have to reinstall the stock manifold (or take it to a "special" emissions place!), but it would be nice to not have to, like with this design header

 

Oh yeah! It looks like it also has mounts for the factory manifold braces, which the DC doesn't have

 

someone get this quick and give us a review lol

 

i was going to put a megan muffler on my tc and every one told me not to that they were pos parts but i guess this header looks good maybe ill pick it up once i get my intake

 

I know someone who worked for Megan. And I talked to several people who thought the cat was a bad idea. I talked to another guy who is still at Megan, and basically, I have come to the conclusion that this header is at best questionable. At least until one of us actually tries it out with proof howing otherwise. I mught be able to pick it up the cheapest, so I am considering giving it a try to see if it is worth anything. Retail is $295.00. The DC might be better though, and to be honest, most people dont like DC Headers. Our only other choice right now is Alpha Werks, and from what I hear, they are in the same boat as Megan. Cheap stuff. I guess we will see soon enough. Hopefully I am wrong and all of these parts kick ___!

 

Yea I really really hope this is a good quality part b/c I am a little dissapointed with the dc header.

 

Why don't you like it?

 

I think I may swap my DC header for this as well at some point.

 

I wonder how much the High flow PreCat on this header will help with the sound of the exhaust. I've read nothing but bad things about the DC header and the sound of the exhaust, maybe this header would be better sound wise. What do you guys think.

 

i'm picking mine up this weekend and installing it. i'll let ya guys know how i like it. :D

 

Two reasons that aren't really performance just small things that it throws the CEL and that its not chromed.

 

05 please do let us know how it sounds....

 

very anxious to hear a review from an actual SL member.

 

post your review as soon as its on.

 

the dyno is a little hard to read, did it gain 7whp and 8 torque?

i'm very interesting on how it sounds & fits.
