new headers and exhaust
I recently purchased a 1987 GXL. It has a little over 100k on the engine. I wanted to do an exhaust upgrade and was wondering if it was difficult to install new headers and the rest of the exhaust? Also, what are some reputable companies with full exhaust kits for a decent price?
Thanks, all help is appreciated.

they exaust is rather easy to do... esp if you can get on a lift. helps to have someone to help you, when you are pulling the whole thing off... the only thing that i had a problem with was getting the damn heat sheilds off... but other than that its an easy job.
with the right tools (aka good sockets and wrenches and extentions, it goes really quick)
i bought the mazdatrix / rb true duals... at 1300 they arent exactly cheap... but the power gain was great from the stock exaust

Do you know of any other good places to shop around for parts like exhaust and what not for gen 2 rx-7's. Like websites or places where I can get a catalogue.

do I really have to take off all of the actuator valve, and ACV stuff to get the middle screw off of the top heat sheild?
