ino people will argue with me but i actually noticed a difference with the header and downpipe. sound will b crappy though

spikeymikey87,

Who makes stock ride height heavy-duty springs? All I can find are lowering kits. I am looking at stiffening up my ride by adding tower bars, but all the springs I hae found are shorter than stock.

When you say quality, what do you mean? Ride, handling? Just curious? How about if I am planning on changing the struts?

Many other treads about this but my feelings like I've stated b4 is that the header at least is not worth it.

Well anyone who's been around here knows my feelings on the short tube headers on a Neon...especially since your talking about using the downpipe just buy a long tube header and see some real gains...

i dont know. I don't like to shove stuff down people's throats. If your ultimate goal is to go turbo, I don't see the reason in spending more money on a long tube when you plan on replacing it later on! If your goal is to be N/A and all motor, I see the reason to purchase the longtube.
