Hi
Anyone used a header on an NB other than Racing Beat / Cobalt? It turns out the entire exhaust system is different between NB auto and manual so neither of those fit.
Does anyone have intel on X-Force, an Australian supplier/producer?
Thanks

Re: Headers for NB
from memory Hurricane are supposed to be quite good.
They aren't shiny stainless like racing beat etc, but are supposed to be designed well for the engine.
As for the auto/manual difference, up at the engine end it will all be the same, the only difference I can think of is that the midpipes may be different lengths/locations.
Or the auto models may have the end of the header bent at a different angle to clear the auto box (since they're wider than the manuals)
