im doing a engine swap to my 95 22re. I purchased a pacesetter header before reading all the horror storys. so im gona play it safe and have the flange resurfaced and use a good gasket. My question is, what is the pipe that connects to the header? i have to extend it somehow and its alum tubing.. any help would be apreciated...

 

Which pipe? the one AFTER the header? When I put my Pacesetter header on, I just redid my entire exhaust, so the shortness of the pipe that goes after the header didnt matter. It was only like 1/2" too short for me.
What you can do it cut off the exhaust hangers and reweld them on in different spots.
BTW. I bought my Pacesetter used, and havent had any problems...yet ..almost 6K miles I think..

 

could you put a pic up to show what you're talking about....and when i put mine on i didnt have to extend anything.....

 

its the little line that connects to the header piping and goes to the engine somewhere. the connection piece is differnt then the stock.

 

the egr pipe?

 

is that wat its called lol... im lacking experience. might need to take a pic

 

a pic would really help lol

 

Picture for sure....
