Anybody interested in a full exhaust system for the 2.2L? I bought my girlfriend the parts but her car got into an accident and was written off... got a pacesetter head (ceramic coated), magnaflow high-flo cat, 14" magnaflow resonator, and a magnaflow muffler. paid $800 for everything, willing to sell all for $550. all are for 2.25" piping, will post pics later.

thanks for the responce stevefire, and yes my clutch is ceramic, I've put 200km on the car now and the chatter is almost gone now, i have only been reving up to 4000rpm for now my mecanic told me not to go any higher than that for about 2 tanks of gas, and compatition told me the same, after that im going to try a 100shot of nitrous for starters and go from there

warren, the only thing I've heard with ceramics is that if you slip it even just a little bit, it squeals as it engages.

I'm sure the chatter will go away. Its either its going away, or you're getting used to driving with ceramic pucks.

as for breaking in the engine, it depends on what side of the tracks you're brought up on.

myself, I took a mentor's advice and drove it like I will normally drive it. (full throttle, high revving)

while I was building the engine, I heard from both sides, one said baby it, one said give her @!#$.

night ryder, $300 for the header seems pretty steep, IMO.

You should actually phone him. Phil is a local guy, I got mine on sale for $450 IIRC.

The way it SHOULD work: when an LD9 knocks, an eco finds a new home!

Don't mess around, swap it up!
