Default Already have rear exhaust but want manifold

Hey guys

I have a remus cat-back exhaust already but want to upgrade my headers.

Firstly, will upgrading the headers make any difference in performance at all?

And secondly will these ones go well: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/AUDI-A4-94-01-...item3efbfedb98

If those will not work well does anybody have any suggestions at all?

Thanks

Year? Motor?

The exhaust mani in the link you posted is for the 1.8T, but you saying "headers" makes me think you've got a V6

Thanks

it will do a big differnce i think apr claimed from a stock 1.8t it took the car from 180hp to 210hp but the very first upgrade i would do is chip it

you best bang for the money is a chip than full exhaust and that will crank you up like 45 hp for about $1500 depending on the deals you get

I already have the APR chip but am now after an exhaust manifold. So far i am not finding any on ECS tuning. Am i blind and can't find them on the site? What are some good brands (i need just the manifold, i have a remus cat-back already.

Thanks

if you have the cat back exhaust than you need a downpipe which is the next step and a dv
