Hi Guys,

I'm looking into getting the full X-Force Exhaust setup from Mania:

2.25\" X-Force Exhaust
X-Force Hi-Flow Cat
X-Force Muffler
X-Force Stainless Steel 4-2-1 Headers

Has anyone installed the setup above before or have any feedback on the quality of X-Force goodies?

Cheers,

Ray

Is it for a 1.8? There was a set of extractors on ebay, didn't see how much but might be worth a look.

those xforce headers looks horrible, all chopped up and and welding looking like from a backyard shed......

but then again it is cheaper than most

With the amount of gain you get from them its not worth spending huge money on headers... get these xforce ones, then get them hpc coated..

If you are going to further modify an NA engine (ie Cams/ECU/IRTB) get the best headers available. Lots of good JDM gear or Racing Beat.

If not, check ebay for 4-1 pattern (Racing Beat copy) and do a bit of dremmeling.

I've got the X-force headers, they were wrapped in heat wrap so I couldn't have a great look, but the welds looks good and with the stainless cat and 2.25 cat back system it's a big improvement.

get the x-force metal cat, any thing else is just a waste of money.

They are a copy of the genuine 'metal cat' and flow pretty damn well too, much better than a ceramic high flow.
I'm running a 2.5\" one on my turbo setup, seem pretty good so far!

Hey Sheck,

What's the difference between the Metal Cat and the Stainless Steel Cat?
