is a header worth buying ive always put them on my cars just wanted to get some opinions from people who have them

 

I have the APN header: http://www.ineedparts.com/auto-parts...-manifold.html

For the price and the fact mine was cracked pretty bad I think it is worth it.

 

Yeah I don't know what the gains are but the stock one is tubular so I can't imagine the flow picks up that much.

In response to the ones that crack, a lot of guys separate the runners on tubular turbo manifolds to help isolate the swelling that typically cracks manifolds.

 

this biggest problem with the cherokee header in my eyes is the fact there is no flex joint at all in the whole exhaust system, I installed a pacesetter header and wrapped it, and also a SS flex joint

 

a flex section definitely helps; especially if your motor mounts are shot.
