I have a stock exhaust manifold on my 96 Contour Zetec engine. I want to put some headers on it for better performance. I'm willing to either relocate the cat or gut it altogether. But as we all know, California has strict laws that doesn't allow you to do such things. My questions are:
1) Are there any headers out there for the Zetec engine that will allow you to keep the cat in the current location and offer better performance that the stock manifold?
2) Is there anyone here that's close to where I live (Moreno Valley; right next to Riverside in the Inland Empire) that can fabricate some headers if required for a reasonable price?
3) Is there a workaround to get these headers and still comply with this stupid California law?
If any of you have got the answers to these questions, please shed some light for me on this topic.:help: Thank you very much. I know this is a sensitive topic, so feel free to PM me if necessary.
Mods, please forgive me for posting this in the "California" section. I posted these questions in this section because we are the only state with such regulations and I figured only California CEGers will be able to help me.
