Hey thanks for the video my cat went out and it was giving me a p2040 code so I had toswap out the exhaust manifold . Video helped quick tip for those doing trying to get the bolts from the bottom a 19mm deep socket or a 3/4 dose the job with an extension gives you more leverage to undo those bolts their super hard . Soak them in wd40 first and it be super easy . As well as use anti seize on the treads when putting it back together.
Bro, got the one from MainTec finally and installed it today. It’s awsome 🤩 Thanks again for the awsome video helped me a lot for deciding and buying it and also for the installation. 👍🏼🤝💪🏼🥇
Wasn’t too bad? It’s awsome bro 🤣 much more noise and faster throttle response. I’m gonna do a chiptuning next now with this, my catback exhaust and Injen CAI installed. I might get some good results tho
Just picked up the OBX header for my 2013 NAV. Almost considered having a shop do the job, but this didn't look too bad. Might have a friend come and give me a hand.
Hola Noe, Soy nuevo en esto de los vehiculos. Tengo un Veloster 2012 y me está encendiendo Check engine y me dicen en el taller es Catalitico defectuoso. He visto reemplazos de Magnaflow y otras marcas, no se si sea conveniente usar uno de esos o ponerle el stock?
Steve Aguilar yes they fit perfect no special modding needed the only thing u have to do is weld the bung on to the flex pipe for the downstream sensor other than that everything fit perfect even the gasket it comes with and the brand is maintec headers i was iffy about it too but i just went ahead and bought them till this day since installed i enjoy hearing the sound of my car 💯💪🏻
Jorge Garcia thanks man 💪🏻 and i feel the car has faster response and picks up speed faster since the headers as far as hp gains! I wouldn’t know yet till it goes on dyno
Hey man I’ve been having Cat problems and only have one left which is on the header. So I bought a new obx header hoping it’ll be better . But its my daily driver so ofc I’m gonna wrap it . Do you drive yours daily and have you had any problems with heat
Yo buddy, I've got a question about ur install. did you also get the engine light on cause of the O2 sensors after the install? I even put 2x engine light eliminators on them and it still goes on. I appreciate any help or suggestion.
Just a quick question, my cat went out… will this fix that problem? When you buy the headers does it come with the cat? It looked like it but I wanted to be double sure. Thanks!!
Saludos🤘🏼 la tuberia fui a la tienda local de mufflers y les dije que me cortaran los mufflers y el catalytico es solo una sola pipa desde el flex pipe hasta atras!!
Unless your flex pipe is torn and producing a exhaust leak, it’s not a necessity to replace that with the head/cat combo but a flex pipe in general is needed for the exhaust to have the ability to flex with the torque of the engine
No its the flex pipe! And honestly i was tuned already with headers and it passed smog! Until i went full straight piped it did make the engine light turn on!
@@noegarcia4875 I'm thinking about installing a Defouler in my car in order to pass smog, do think that would work for now before I get a tune? Also, if I were to get a defouler, where would I put it? before or after the CAT?
U should wear gloves man! I did this job on mine the oem manifold gasket is very sharp on the edges I want to do this on my car but were I live I have inspections but I deleted my second cat lol
Jesse Bolles i did buy some but felt uncomfortable since they are kind of thick! Also here in vegas smog is required every year but i did mine a week before changing them out so i should be good for a couple more months!
@@noegarcia4875 oh ok well if it fails smog test because of your header then put your oem catalytic converter back in ( once u take out the honey cone) and put adaptors in were your 02 sensors go so it will keep the check engine light off ...also if u have the heat shield on the top it will hide the top o2 sensor when they pop open the hood for inspection
nice video bro. Hope you're happy with it. I've been thinking a lot about getting this. Do you have a link of it on Ebay as I could only find it on a website which has no rating on trustpilot and the other ones on Ebay who ship to the Netherlands are similar tho this one but not the same brand and quality
Ali maniiac THANKS MAN APPRECIATE IT 💯💪🏼 ITS BEEN A FEW MONTHS NOW AND STILL ENJOY THEM AS IF I JUST GOT THEM INSTALLED!! and Noo!! I don’t think the seller i bought from has them anymore when i search up the link nothing pops up only the OBX headers seem to pop up which i don’t really think they are any different other than the name!! And pricing!
@@noegarcia4875 Bro, I did some research about the other similar one from OBX and it's kinda crap :D It has a thin stainless layer and works good for about 2-3 years max. I just bought the same one from MainTec from Sharkracing eventho there were some bad reviews about them but they were all old reviews and I could find some good reviews as well. Anyways I paid for it with paypal so I'm on the safe side either way. Can't wait to install it. Again thanks a lot for sharing the video
@@noegarcia4875 Did you remove flex pipe by yourself? I guess mine is so rusted (Canada) that I bought an electric impact wrench to be able to unbolt it.
wolvie45 yea it took some force but i was able to get them i sprayed every bolt with WD40 before i started and only tools i used was what u see in the video!! And damn thats tough were u able to get them off tho? Are you recording your process? Curious too see 🤔

most def gonna need to hear some driving clips 👀👀👀 thinking i want to do this with my 2017 nav
Quason Million Definitely will be having one out soon!!
Where did you get your headers from?
Ebay
@@noegarcia4875 & they actually fit I don't trust eBay which ones did you actually get do you have like the serial number?(:
Steve Aguilar yes they fit perfect no special modding needed the only thing u have to do is weld the bung on to the flex pipe for the downstream sensor other than that everything fit perfect even the gasket it comes with and the brand is maintec headers i was iffy about it too but i just went ahead and bought them till this day since installed i enjoy hearing the sound of my car 💯💪🏻
What intake do u own
Where do you usually jack the car from
What is the torque for header bolts
Dang there's a lot of room back there without a turbski
was there any perceived performance improvements by chance?
Where did you get the headers!
Nice job any HP gains ?
Jorge Garcia thanks man 💪🏻 and i feel the car has faster response and picks up speed faster since the headers as far as hp gains! I wouldn’t know yet till it goes on dyno
What is the exhaust set up?
Do you have the eBay link for the header
Hey man I’ve been having Cat problems and only have one left which is on the header. So I bought a new obx header hoping it’ll be better . But its my daily driver so ofc I’m gonna wrap it . Do you drive yours daily and have you had any problems with heat
Yes i do drive it everyday allday and till this day no problem with heat and i dont have them wrapped!
Yo buddy, I've got a question about ur install. did you also get the engine light on cause of the O2 sensors after the install? I even put 2x engine light eliminators on them and it still goes on. I appreciate any help or suggestion.
Unfortunately yes it did turn on! about a week after installing them! After about 2 months the light randomly shut off while i was driving!
@@noegarcia4875 haha that's weird bro. I installed 2x Blox engine light eliminators. wish I was lucky as you
Where did you get this manifold? ?
Just a quick question, my cat went out… will this fix that problem? When you buy the headers does it come with the cat? It looked like it but I wanted to be double sure. Thanks!!
How about fuel consumption after new headers?
Que no se supone que le quitaste el catalizador? Eso debería marcar falla en el motor después de instalar ese nuevo
I almost bolted it all the way up but the upstream oxygen sensor thread diameter is too small for the header. I had to tear it down. What a headache.
What brand? I was looking at Shark Racing headers.
How much did you purchase the car for
Hey Noe, do you know the torque specs for the manifold bolts? Or if we have tighten them in a sequence?
21.7 - 25.3 lb-ft I went sequence!
Estoy buscando ese mismo heder y no lo consigo si me puedes ayudar te lo agradeseria
You should’ve made the header into a UEL
WHERE DID YOU BUY IT FROM
Hola amigo consulta tendrás el contacto donde los venden el multiple saludos de chile
Hola! Yo compre los headers en ebay! El link ya no me aparese para estos! Pero tambien aiy diferentes marcas
So I have a question do you know if this will work on the turbo version of the veloster?
No. Turbo cars, the Turbo is integrated into the exhaust manifold. They may bolt up but if you put it on, it will be N/A lol
Saludos, no se si hablas español pero encantaria ver donde lo comprastes y que marca es la tuberia
Saludos🤘🏼 la tuberia fui a la tienda local de mufflers y les dije que me cortaran los mufflers y el catalytico es solo una sola pipa desde el flex pipe hasta atras!!
@@noegarcia4875 pero veo que pusistes header y tuberia hasta atras saludos desde Puerto Rico
@@JavierGonzalez-pf9fx los headers son marca MainTec los compre en ebay! Tambien aiy marca obx!
I just bought the catalytic converter but it's only the header, not the bottom piece you removed first. Is the bottom piece a neccesity?
Unless your flex pipe is torn and producing a exhaust leak, it’s not a necessity to replace that with the head/cat combo but a flex pipe in general is needed for the exhaust to have the ability to flex with the torque of the engine
I would like to do that on my velo bro
Anyone know what’s the socket size for the headers’ nuts?
On which webside can i buy it?
First time getting into car culture, how would you pass smog? Is that a Catalytic Convertor that you installed after the headers?
No its the flex pipe! And honestly i was tuned already with headers and it passed smog! Until i went full straight piped it did make the engine light turn on!
@@noegarcia4875 I'm thinking about installing a Defouler in my car in order to pass smog, do think that would work for now before I get a tune? Also, if I were to get a defouler, where would I put it? before or after the CAT?
Do you have the non turbo? Beacuse I’m trying to find header for my tv but they all say non turbo
Yes I have the non turbo!
U should wear gloves man! I did this job on mine the oem manifold gasket is very sharp on the edges I want to do this on my car but were I live I have inspections but I deleted my second cat lol

Will you still be able to pass emissions with these?
Not if your check engine light goes on!
Hey bro what kind of exhaust/muffler do you have on your car ?
There i only had a muffler delete with custom tips! Now its full straight piped from the flex pipe all the way back had it done at muffler shop
did it get more power or what@@noegarcia4875
Where did you buy it? I'm from Puerto Rico 🇵🇷
The headers I bought off eBay! The same seller no longer appears but I think u can still find them on shark racing if I’m not mistaking
Any check engine light? If any, how to you fix it?
I didn’t get a check engine light after install!!
Wath de marque and site

It was thanks man
How much did you pay and we’re did you buying from
El joker $320 and ebay maintec headers
Cool thanks man
They check light coke out after this?
No check engine light!
@@noegarcia4875 amazing can I get the link how much u pay?
What if you need smog it? 🥺😩
Passed smog like nothing👍🏼 i was also kinda iffy but everything is all good
I can’t tell a difference you should I got a turbo Veloster
I can’t tell a difference you should’ve got a Veloster turbo
Yes this car very slow 😢
Could you send me everything you have done on this and what brand everything else
K&n intake, maintec headers, straight piped from flex pipe all the way back! And ecu flash tune! Only things i have done to it!
@@noegarcia4875 where did you have tune done or what did u use
@@michaelkrom5785 damnfastdd.com/BrowseProducts/ShowProducts/Veloster+(NA)/Electronics_Tuning there u can pick which option you would like
Or did you use a tuner chip or something
The $500 dollar one
How did you remove that damned bolt around 3:00. I removed all except one since I can't remove it with torque wrench, or impact electric wrench.
Honestly it took me about 10 min just to remove that one and i used a small ratchet tool after trying different angles was finally able to get it!!!
@@noegarcia4875 Does your car turn its CEL on (P0420) since you removed the first cat ?
wolvie45 the check engine light did come on like 4 days after installing them i never really checked what code it was throwing tho!
@@noegarcia4875 Did you remove flex pipe by yourself? I guess mine is so rusted (Canada) that I bought an electric impact wrench to be able to unbolt it.
