OP murphylee New CEG\'er M Joined: Jan 2003 Posts: 46 Cleveland, Ohio	I am really having trouble with deciding on a new exhaust. I would like to get a new header so that I can change my cat but can't find a header for the tour!! I also wanted to go 2"or 2.25" pipe all the way to dual outs. Do you guys think that would flow too freely (no res 2 hi flo mufflers) on a zetec. I also don't know what type of muffler will sound good w/o rasp. I have access to a pipe bender and I can weld so I will probably do this on my own. Thanks in advance guys

Or if race header no cat. 95 Tour ATX Zetec EGR Block OFF Polished TB Polishe Vavle cover Energy suspension Greaseable sway bar bushings Front and rear Red interior lights 1/2 done Home made short ram intake Custom Grills Watch this space grow

It is true ( I lost a lot of torque down low in the RPMS after installing the race header). But the gain in the mid to high range RPMs is great!
