Why Good Headers & Exhaust Systems Matter

At 4,000 rpm, the 1.587L 4A-FE engine theoretically draws in approximately 3,174 litres of intake air per minute and can expel around 9,520 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.

Installation Tips

• Apply penetrating lubricant such as WD-40 or similar to manifold studs, nuts and exhaust fasteners before removal
• Remove all traces of the old manifold gasket and inspect the cylinder-head sealing surface
• Fit a new exhaust manifold/header gasket where required
• Trial-fit the headers before completing the exhaust connection
• Exhaust modification and welding to the flex pipe may be required
• Check the condition of the existing flex pipe and replace it if worn or damaged
• Check clearance around the engine, transmission, drivetrain, steering and surrounding components
• Protect the painted header surfaces during trial fitting and installation
• Ensure oxygen sensors and emissions-control equipment are correctly retained where applicable
• Check all exhaust connections for leaks after installation
• Inspect and re-tighten the header mounting hardware after the initial heat cycles

Warranty & Compliance

Wildcat headers are covered by the manufacturer's applicable warranty conditions.

Installation must retain the catalytic converter, oxygen sensors and any other emissions-control equipment required for the vehicle. Exhaust and emissions requirements vary between Australian states and territories, and the completed installation must comply with the regulations applicable in your state or territory.
