Wildcat WILD046 headers are Australian Made and designed around the Mazda Bravo B2600 installation of the 2.6L G6 SOHC 12-valve petrol engine.
The header configuration uses approximately 41mm (1.58") primary pipes feeding into 44mm (1.75") secondary pipes with a 51mm (2.00") outlet.
A replacement exhaust manifold/header gasket is available separately – see DSF118.
Please contact Best Mufflers if you require advice on gaskets, exhaust components or installation parts for your Mazda Bravo B2600.
IMPORTANT: WILD046 is specifically for the applicable 2.6L G6 petrol-engine application. Mazda Bravo models were produced with several different engines, so confirm the engine code before ordering.
G6 Engine: WILD046 is designed for the 2.6L G6 SOHC 12-valve petrol engine. Australian vehicle application data confirms the G6-powered B2600 Bravo UF in both rear-wheel-drive and 4WD configurations.
2WD & 4WD: The supplied Wildcat application information specifically lists WILD046 as suitable for both 2WD and 4WD models.
Direct Fit: WILD046 is listed as a direct-fit application. Because these vehicles are now around 30 years old, check for previous exhaust modifications or engine changes before installation.
Year Range: Australian vehicle application data shows the G6-powered B2600 UF continuing beyond 1996. However, this WILD046 listing retains the 1991-1996 Wildcat application range. For later vehicles, please contact Best Mufflers to confirm header fitment before ordering.
Gaskets, bolts and other installation hardware should not be assumed to be included unless specifically confirmed before ordering.
DSF118 – replacement exhaust manifold/header gasket.
Before installation, inspect the existing exhaust system, manifold studs, engine mounts and associated mounting hardware.
At 4,000 rpm, the 2.6L G6 four-cylinder engine theoretically draws approximately 5,200 litres of intake air per minute at 100% volumetric efficiency and expels around 15,600 litres of hot exhaust gas per minute at approximately 600°C.
A well-designed header and exhaust system helps manage this high gas flow efficiently, reducing restriction and improving exhaust scavenging, torque, throttle response and engine performance.
Before installation, confirm that the vehicle is a Mazda Bravo B2600 UF fitted with the 2.6L G6 SOHC 12-valve petrol engine.
Lubricate threaded fasteners with WD-40 or a similar penetrating lubricant before removal to assist with easier removal and installation.
Professional installation is recommended. After installation and several heat cycles, inspect the exhaust system for leaks and recheck accessible fasteners where appropriate.
Any catalytic converter, oxygen sensor and other emissions-control equipment required for the particular vehicle must remain correctly installed and operational.
Installation must comply with applicable Australian state or territory requirements relating to emissions, exhaust noise and vehicle modifications.
