I ended up going with the apn and I think I may end up getting a new down pipe or get a flex pipe so try to help with cracking ill post up pics when I get it in

 

I'm running a APN style ebay header on my 98xj. So far it's been great. The key is to replace your motor and trans mounts when installing the header.

 

I just had a APN header installed with a flex pipe in the middle

 

Have any pictures of the set up?

 

I feel like there wouldn't be enough clearance between the header and the downpipe to put a flex pipe in...I guess we'll see once I get it all apart.

 

Trying to upload a picture forum is having a problem

 

Does that leak at all? I've never used one of those.

 

Nice, so you just cut a small section out of the downpipe and welded the flex in? I might have to do that.

I also decided that I'm going to get new Brown Dog motor mounts while I'm in there...it wouldn't make sense not to at this point. So probably a next week project.

 

My motor mounts will be at my door tomorrow, along with a trans mount and some electrical stuff to start building my headlight loom. Saturday: new intake mani, 703 injectors, and the start of a CAI.

 

No leaks so far, I have 250miles on it and one lake trip.

 

I went with brown dog poly mounts and daystar poly tranny mount

 

Is yours an auto? How are the vibes when you're at a stop?

 

Yes it is auto, it's not that bad but it does rattle, a little worse when the AC is on. This is also a dedicated trail rig so it does not bother me that much.

 

I like the feeling. Makes 'er feel sporty, like old muscle car sporty not rice burner sporty.

 

Heres the next question for you guys should I get some heat mates of tape with the reflective coating on it and stick it on the bottom of my intake to try and keep a little heat off of it
