its for a 00+ neon, it wont work for your car in the sig. besides, for that amount of money, you could get something better that will give you more hp at the wheels. 15 hp that they claim is probably at the crank, so you will see 2-5whp at the most. and probably with supporting mods on top of it.

^^^^But the 2000+ are SOHC's as well, so it would fit. It's the same engine. Its alot of bling, but I'd go with the Pacesetter for my money on the SOHC engine.

Depends...some bolt in, others require cutting and welding.

exhaust will not add horse power. yes this is a play on words. exhaust wont add horse power but it will release bound up horse power. this is why i shudder when ppl say they are getting an exhaust upgrade. if u have not upgraded ur engine yet ( in my respecfull opinion and respectable experiance) it is a wasteto upgrade ur exhaust. at least until u have started producing enouph exhaust that u need it. as for headers. once again just an opinion, go to headersbyedd.com ( i think thats the site) and fill out the request form. they will do some research based on the rpm range u want to operate in and the engine your using and tell u what type of headers u should get based on your needs. my father and i both have very strong fealings about headers. the problem with the after-market is that they are thereto sell and what tends to sell is short, fat 4-2-1 exhaust manifolds that are easy to insall and look good. i have respect for pace setter and lots of other manufacturers but i do get tired of producers exploiting the market. now im done with my rant and i hope i didnt **** any of u off. p.s. im also quitting smoking right now so if u have noticed i been a bit gabby or rude that would be why.i have not had a single smoke since friday the 19th @ 2:35
