    2.5 exhaust header question

    I recently bought a 2.5 catback exhaust off ebay. One of the reasons of which i did so is because my exhaust broke off right in front of the cat.
    this is the exhaust i got .

    Problem is, i need the headers and the pipe after that so the exhaust will hook up since its a bigger size exhaust then stock. Can someone point me to some cheap headers on ebay that will work?

    actually, these would be ideal correct?

    You should be able to bolt it to your cat, brother, but I'd stay away from a $40 header/dp combo. The quality can't be much good at that price.

      my cat broke off. its pretty much open exhaust right now. Well, im willing to give them a shot anyways, i need to get the exhaust on so i can get the car inspected. Keep in mind, I take it to a friend, which will lick and stick it, but he wont do that with a open exhaust. As long as he sees that theres a exhaust coming out the back ill be good. But can you guys point me out a couple of em?
      Ive had some friends that bought ebay headers, and never had any issues though.

        header meaning one , not headers.a stock F22A4 manifold is just as good as a cheap header.a cheap header has poor weld and tend to crack.even with the 2.5 pipes it will flow about the same as a stock A4.look into a name brand if you want the best bang for your buck.

        A man that keeps looking back can't see whats in front of him.

          If the cat broke off, you need a cat or test pipe, along with the header/dp. The flanges on the pic look thick, the welds look decent, if you're just looking to fake it, go for it, it should last you for a while anyway.

              I have a test pipe with my exhaust. I'll just buy one of those headers, and give it a shot
