Doing some searching around the net about the obx headers and downpipe, and im seeing people talking about the downpipe needing a support backet to hold it in place or something like that. I was hoping to find a picture of what this bracket looks like. Has anyone done this to their saturn??

 

Not I .............. I watched all the guys via work (Saturn Dealers) swap trannys, bolt on headers, big bore throttle body's cold and short ram intakes, and still they ran only a few tenths faster in the 1/4 mile. Till they did head work, got cams, punched to 2.0 liters did the S-Cars start to run low 15's high 14's. Add a 50 or 75 shot and they were off. Bolt on a turbo with alot of other work and a number of them ran in the 12's and a couple in the 11's. Ran my 1998 SW2 shifter with nothing but a shortram and a set of slicks at 15.8 many times. Some cars respond to simple cheap bolt on and others do no. Saturn S-Cars do not and I've had many of them.

 

I know the saturn isnt really a performance car like most imports are, but im looking to make it sound good and look good. I figured that id just lower my SC a few inches with some springs, put 17's on it and the exhaust and leave it at that. Im not trying to dump more money into my car than what its worth. I ran across Octavious video of his SL2 on youtube and i wanted my car to sound something like that..... thats all

 

Thats cool................understand that 100%
