Exhaust? Just checking...

rs2.5-3.0 · 09-04-2005, 04:24 PM

I have a 1996 Brighton w/ EJ18. I hear it has dual port heads so a borla header will fit from a 2.5rs?

Also, will a 2.5rs exhaust bolt up directly to the Brighton? flanges and hardware are on the same rotation? In other words, the bolts and flanges from a 2.5rs car will slide in the brighton's spot w/o having to cut off the flang to rotate it clockwise or counterclockwise to line up?

Need to purchase soon so please help.

THX,

Borla dual port headers will fit the EJ18. The catback from an RS should fit but I need some others to back me up.

Yes on both counts.

yay. I should be able to run low 19's at say... 75mph!.... in the 1/8th mile!

No, seriously. Thanks for your time and feedback. My crappy exhaust just needs a replacement.
