Anybody think these will fit the iM? I don't want to buy the ceramic DC header made for the iM.

I don't know much about headers but what's wrong with the DC one?

 

[Nick Prescott]

Yes these will fit.

 

[Ochoa365]

They're ceramic, not as good as stainless steel

Thanks Nick!

 

[Ochoa365]

Do you know if I have to cut off the cats to install the header?

 

[lee25088]

I was doing some reading on them and it seems the 4-2-1 is better for low end vs the DC which is 4-1 so I think I'll look into getting one of the weapon r ones when I get some extra funds

 

[Nick Prescott]

You do not, they are bolt on. Cats will still be in place.

I've always had a liking towards weapon R products. Looks pretty nice as well.

Finally ordered the header. Ended up being $271 with a price match from CARiD. Here is the link I requested for CARiD to price match with

https://www.discountbandit.com/vehi...jXuPllizCPJRx8LQ6VJP5FK706RIsgrzFBoCSa3w_wcB#

And the link for the header on CARiD

I am getting the header installed once it gets here, hopefully by friday. I will post pictures and a follow up afterwards.

The sound clip for after the header was installed doesn't sound too great due to highway speeds. Can upload another if requested.
The torque is definitely noticable from the header. IMO it was worth it. There is a rattle that seems to be coming from a mid area of the exhaust piping. Anybody have an idea of what might be causing it?

 

[Ochoa365]

Oh, and the exhaust note sounds cleaner throughout the power band. Just kind of annoyed by that rattle lol.

I managed to figure out what the rattling noise was. Just the exhaust tapping on the heat shield.

 

[gcomer]

How has the Weapon R header been, now that you have had it for a while?

Did you ever have any issues with the check engine light?

 

[Ochoa365]

It's been great! No issues at all. No check engine light with this header as the cat isn't required to be removed.
Also if you email CARiD and inquire about a price match for the header and include this link https://www.discountbandit.com/vehi...G858_N38r0HrW91O9uMb2d6y7hBz57SBoCnSkQAvD_BwE
They should match it

These links are old and won't open anymore, but am I understanding correctly? The Scion XD header will fit the IM? Or is it the XB? I see something about an XB2 as well, any help is appreciated.
