the header is a custome true dual unit, with a cherry bomb mid pipe it looks like.
now go tear some *** in your loud *** na.

i was tryna find out what kinda headers they were
i know its only the single exit so it should be louder but it has the 2 mufflers, resonator and whatever the other pieces are
LoL...... probably not close to stock.....
Probably very loud. It is even a single exhaust which will make it a bit louder.
Those def. aren't RB..... I know SSAutoChrome on ebay makes immitation RB headers i think. Maybe it is those? Or some other cheap ebay knock off? That is a ton of rust? I would clean that up and hit that with some high temp paint or something to hopefully avoid further corrosion.

Depends what the sound deadening material inside the mufflers is. If it is fiberglass chances are it's melted out. If it's stainless steal then they are probably still good but that offset muffler is a big restriction.
Gains? If your stock system was really old, and backed up..... 5 HP at the wheels.....
I saw it is an 89, so, the aux opening shouldn't be a problem.
It will probably be more weight saving then power gaining. Dual exhaust is heavy.
It doesn't matter how many mufflers there are if they all suck.
Not saying yours do. But, if one is a cherry bomb, or anything like that, and it was glass packed, then you can consider it just a straight pipe after a couple miles because the temp from our exhausts melt that stuff fast.
So, any of those mufflers that are glass pack mufflers, they are probably just straight pipes now. In that case, it will be really loud.
When you get it on and started, make a clip and let us see what it sounds like.
IMO, I am not a fan of huge muffler tips. Looks alright, but not my style. I like the stock look, maybe .25" thicker.

That is, without a doubt, and RB knock-off header. It is identical to their true dual header, even down to the cut-out pattern on the engine-side flange. The mid-pipe is some sort of custom unit, and the cat-back is either an Apex N1 or a knock off of it. I have that on my car, and it looks exactly like that.
As for sound, it will be loud as ****. I have basically that same setup, except with an RB single header and RB presilencer. It sets off car alarms when I drive by, it annoys the neighbors, I can't talk on the telephone when I'm on the highway. But it sounds awesome. Since there is a generic "presilencer" it could be a cheap one that is blown out, making the car even louder. Just throw it on the car and see how it sounds.
As for power, you will get some, but nothing major. I doubt you will see too much high-end gains, but it should free up the mid-range some. There really isn't a whole lot to be gained on an NA rotary through the exhaust if it has stock ports.

Yes, one is on Chambers Bridge rd and has a green dragon for a mascot. The school I went to is on Lanes Mills rd and has a mustang (the horse) for a mascot. I know a couple kids that graduated from the other school. Feel free to PM me.

Typical gains on a free-flowing full exhaust are about 25 at the wheels It's not hard for even a cheap exhuast to be free-flowing, but those tend to be loud and run you into smog trouble.
