Those PEM'* look sweet all painted up and are very cost effective but .......



Much better flow.....and the sound quality alone, is like comparing the factory air box to an open cone.

Those do look quite nice. If I had the funds, I'd be all over em.

However, I'd have to get rid of the $300 downpipe/cat/ubend delete combo I have also to get those.

It would be a pretty expensive mod.

No matter, I think you will be happy with your new PEM'*.

Hope they kill your KR and put a smile on your face.

Yes, and what a pain that was. Air tools are a wonderful thing though.

However, the part store gave us the wrong valve cover gaskets, so I'll have to wait until tomorrow to finish up.

I don't know about the 95. On mine, the downpipe bolts on to the manifold. No welding is required. It'* just a serious pain to reach back there, even with the engine tilted forward a bit.

yea i bet it does suck. Does anyone know if it is a direct bolt or is there welding required. I would like to get the PEM'* and a high flow cat to finish my exhaust.

I'm willing to bet it bolts on. If you can, look under the hood to see. All Series II engines have the same manifolds.
