    Straight Headers!

    First one is just straight headers, no o2 sensor, second is straight headers to x pipe and a little bit more with o2 sensor.





    Feel free to check out my straight piped 2.8 v6 fiero and later my 4.9 v8 fiero.

        It would sound much better with the rest of the exhaust on there.

          They are just good ol ebay headers. I did NOT buy them new, i got them used off someone for cheap, so i wasnt really too worried about quality, but they do sound good and there is a noticeable difference up in the rpms.

              My e30 had the same headers. Well mine was IE headers. They called them long tubes. but more was like a mid tube design... Mine had problems with #5 flange not lining up with the studs.

              Edit, also what engine is the 4.9 in your Fiero?

                Mine surprisingly lined up well with no problems but ive got a small leak in cylinder 4 because im reusing my gaskets until Advanced Auto takes 6 days to ship new ones!
                And its all about personal preference when it comes to exhaust, some people like it loud and boring people like it quiet, I have the cat back back on now (eismen) and its quiet but sounds great.

                  It is the 4.9 v8 from the early 90s cadillac devilles and sevilles and some fleetwoods. Square bore/stroke, OHV, Aluminum block, cast iron heads and sleeves.
