Possable delete: WTB: 3sge exhaust manifold or other header, I thought this might be kept for referance on 5s header options Options

I'm wanting to get a 3sge manifold for my 5s. I've seen one on ebay, but it was kinda rusted up, and the guy wanted $100 plus shipping. I don't see a problem paying this for one, but it has to be nice condition. Any ideas guys?

New question at bottem

IT wouldn't make sense that a rear suspension cross-member on a RWD car with a rear-mounted engine would be different from the front suspension cross-member of a FWD car?

You want a header, a good one, properly designed for the 5SFE to maximize what little performance characteristics it has? US$330 for a Genie, or $457 for a Hotshot (Hotshot also comes with the flex pipe). Unless you have to meet emissions standards, both of these can be installed with no modifications. If you do have to meet emissions standards, cut a catalytic converter into your mid-pipe, where your stock resonator goes.

I didn't say it wouldn't be different, just not that different. They have to be similar due to the engines mounting in the same places, don't they? I haven't seen Genie headers anywere. I'm also a little poor right now, so money is always an issue to me. Emitions is never an issue. I don't care about doing some modifications to make it fit. I'm exploring trying to get an H22 header to fit. Well, I get a 3sge, 3sfe, or 5sfe exhaust manifold or header type exit and plate, and cut that about 2 inches after the exit from the motor, and cut the h22 headers in the same spot, then weld together at this point. I can get H22 4-2-1 header for pretty cheap. I'm not set on this. I have to know how long the distance is between the exit ports and under engine of both motors and compare. Also have to compare dirrection of manifolds on each car. There might be a way.
