99 OBS 2.2L Exhaust manifold/header ?


Recommended Posts

Hey everyone,

 

Just picked up my first soobie and am looking to build it a little bit; nothing crazy just want to take advantage of the 2.2's potential.

 

I'm looking for a good header to mate a custom exhaust to. I'm pretty sure the '99 is a single port head (correct me if I'm wrong).

 

Car's current status:

5MT with new Exedy clutch going in this weekend.

Weapon R Dragon Intake en route

 

Will be putting in short shift soon as well.

 

 

 

Also, if anyone knows what programmers/engine management systems are compatible that would be great to know too.

Thanks y'all:drunk:

There is a Borla header and a fake both are pretty popular. You are right on the single port. Im not sure if there is a header for that exhaust port. You could put a 2.5 in place of the 2.2 and that switches to a dual port exhaust and of course increases the power. Not sure if thats carb legal though.

I was in the same boat looking for single port headers. I gave up. Finding a custom exhaust shop that will make one for you is probably the easiest way.

Single port headers are almost impossible to come by from what I've found. Borla made one, but I think they stopped production a few years ago. I might be wrong but I couldn't find anywhere that could actually get one.

There was a smaller company that made a bunch not long ago but they only seem to do limited production runs for group buys. I forget the name of the company but you can find info by searching google. There was a big thread in one of the Impreza forums about it.
