Try 180 degree headers--F-cars fire on alternating cylinder banks, 180 headers sound like it. There are YouTube vids on the web, give a listen.

OBTW, Fiero/Mera interiors are much better than the F-308s. F-328s got better.

thanks Richard
....180 degree headders you say??
do they sell these at the Fiero Store, hahahaha!
i have seen whole F-Car exhaust systems for well over $2300.
so if these headders are athuentic F-car. way too expensive for me.
would rather have the engine swap. and buy me a coffee with the change.

i am gonna check into a new Fiero only shop near me for some insight.

i want too, in the least, get Mera X to be able to have a worry free summer.

tune up, replace worn parts. and the suspention. the big engine swap will have to wait.

Yeah! a summer of worry free road trips.....
car shows, the BIG lake, camping up North in MI
Rock n Roll shows in Chicago.CASINOS......

hope this is not too much $$$$?

as far as youtube....i spend way too much time there as is....
i love hooking my computer up to the home theater and cranking up the "Exhaust Note" vids.
sometimes it shakes the house....so awesome!
thats when i found that "Vacation" vid at....that vid sounds sooo good.
then theres the opening of the movie-"CannonBall Run" sooo nice. LAMBO!!!

i have been lookin for a good Exhaust combo for ole X, because its still too cold to work on. i know Wuss.....right.
well i am sensitive to the season change.. i mean Winter to Spring and from Summer to Fall only.
started when i turned 30 or so.
see, a couple weeks ago it was over 60 and i got sick. Lung infection.
a combo of bathroon/spring cleaning chemicals, dust/dander and
laying on the garages', freezing cold floor. BLAMO! sick.
i am feeling way better now. but still *coughsuplung* its there.

anywho, i do not need the medicine anymore so big dad is on the mend....prepare yourselves....
its supposed to be like 70 here next week....its on! or should i say..."its off".
time for the sawz-all. and the C.C. lets see what that does
later-
Dan

dan to get the sound your looking for run stainless 409 custom equal length headers into dual primaries then to a tubi stainless chambered muffler. sound is distinctly european. probably around $3500.00 for the setup or just throw in a sbc or a nstar for same money lol
