Default Headers for 2.5

Who makes headers for the 2.5? Also, does anybody sell bored throttle bodies/manifolds?

no offense but it's my choice and i want to mod it. i'm not looking for insane gains of any kind just better throttle respone and sound. i like my 4 banger and is alot easier to work on.

I haven't seen any for the Dodge 2.5, but I have for the Jeep 2.5 that went in a lot of Wranglers. It's the same motor. They would mount to the head with the same bolt pattern most likely, only thing is if it doesn't line up with your existing exhaust but that can be easily fixed.

I know they make them for the 3.9, I just can't shell out the money... Just gonna put it towards my next Dakota. But I don't think they make them for the 2.5.

How about a throttle body? Is there a swap from another motor that works?

I know on the v6 you can use the v8 throttle body but not sure about the 4cyl. As far as modding the 2.5 I think its better to save your money and do a v8 swap in the future
