What does Exhaust Header do?

Upgrading your headers and exhaust system is one of the most effective ways to boost horsepower, torque, and enhance engine performance. The FLASHARK Exhaust Header for the Nissan Hardbody is designed to improve exhaust flow, reduce backpressure, and help your engine perform at its best. This modification can add up to 8-20 horsepower, and also give your truck a more aggressive exhaust sound, perfect for those looking for that classic muscle car tone.

In addition to performance gains, installing a high-quality exhaust system can improve your fuel efficiency by approximately 0.5 mpg. While it may seem like a small increase, consider this: if gas costs $3 per gallon and you drive 15,000 miles per year, you could save around $85 annually on fuel. Over five years, that savings could almost cover the cost of a complete cat-back exhaust system.

Exhaust Header VS Manifold, which is the better choice?

The main structural differences between exhaust headers and manifolds lie in their material and design. Exhaust headers are made from lighter, thinner steel, while exhaust manifolds are typically made of thick iron. Additionally, headers are longer than manifolds, allowing for better exhaust flow.

When in use, exhaust manifolds can create backpressure, which negatively impacts engine performance. In contrast, exhaust headers are designed with individual tubes for each cylinder, eliminating backpressure and allowing exhaust gases to flow freely. This leads to improved performance, making exhaust headers a superior choice for your Nissan Hardbody.

By upgrading to Nissan Hardbody headers, you can maximize your engine’s efficiency, reduce backpressure, and enjoy better horsepower and torque.

FAQ

Q: Will this exhaust header fit the 1997 Nissan Hardbody 4x4?

A: This exhaust header does not fit the 1997 Nissan Hardbody. It is only compatible with the 1990-1995 Nissan Hardbody 2.4L 4WD models.

Q: Is this exhaust header compatible with the Nissan King Cab?

A: Yes, the exhaust header designed for the 1990-1995 Nissan Hardbody 2.4L 4WD will fit the Nissan King Cab, as long as it shares the same 2.4L 4WD engine configuration. Both models are essentially the same truck under different names, so the header is compatible.

Q: Why does this exhaust header only fit 4WD models?

A: This exhaust header is designed to fit 4WD models because the 4WD drivetrain configuration requires different space and design considerations compared to 2WD vehicles. The additional drivetrain and structural components in 4WD vehicles necessitate a different fit, which is why it doesn’t work with 2WD models.

Q: Will this exhaust header fit other 2.4L engines, like the Z24 or Z24i engines?

A: No, this exhaust header is not compatible with Z24 or Z24i engines. The exhaust port alignment and exhaust system design are different in these engines, which prevents the header from fitting directly.

Q: Will this exhaust header improve my engine's horsepower and torque?

A: Yes, installing this exhaust header will help increase horsepower and torque for your 1990-1995 Nissan Hardbody 2.4L 4WD model. It also improves exhaust flow efficiency, resulting in better overall performance and potential fuel savings.
