Thinking about getting an ebay header for my 94 ST, and wondered about the effect on fuel economy.

People have said that the ebay header moves power up into the higher rpms.

Now, will less power in the lower band mean better or worse gas mileage for city driving? How about highway speeds?

Also, how much does the ebay header weigh VS. stock exhaust manifold?

Thanks

fuel economy... i really dont see that happening. when i had my header in the fuel economy stayed the same. the car was louder was the only noticable thing.

with the plugs/wires/intake/header/exaust and a straight pipe with a tuned afc i only got about 107 hp and about 119 trq. ill find the dyno sheet somewhere. the fuel stayed the same but the car seemed a little more response on the higher rpms.
