not unless you get a turbo... hence the statement made above.

you want a header, not a downpipe.

Megan Racing makes a KA24DE N/A "downpipe" but it's just the secondary for their headers (um, both suck *** in fitment so don't even waste your time).

Get like a good header setup, that's what you want.

well I got a headers, and downpipe, the downpipe I got was the megan racing one, my cars a 90, but since we put a 95 engine in it, we got a 95 header, and it wouldnt match up to the 90 downpipe, so we went with the megan, it was for a s14 obviously, and the guy at the exhaust shop charged a extra $25 to modify it to fit, he had to cut it and weld it or somethin, but he said it wasnt too bad. so the megan racing one may need modified if you go with it, but yea get a header too if you do it, and I dont think it really made a difference but I dont got nothin to compare it to (before & after) so I dont know if it really makes a difference w/ or w/out the downpipe.

um dude.....downpipes are for turbo cars. Unless you are talking about a 95 JDM SR20det i doubt you have a downpipe on your car

I guess maybe a downpipe could be used in place of a stock flex pipe. Ortherwise it cannot be a "downpipe" on a N/A car.

240sx'in do you have a turbo on your car?
