RE:[E36 M3] Header Question...

["Cain, Sean" <scain@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Dave,

I am not an expert on this topic, but I will pass on what I have read 
since being on the digest for two years.  Evidently, for street purposes, 
headers on the E36 M3 are a mute point;  they don't make any power 
(I think they actually loose torque) and are VERY expensive.  Also, I 
think there is a problem with the position of the O2 sensor.  Not to sound
negative, but I think the header setup is best for track only cars or cars
with superchargers.   I think the stock manifolds make decent power and
should not be a power impediment...look on the intake side for that! 

BMW Motorsport Headers?  You mean Euro M3 Headers?  These do not work
with the US spec head.  They do look awesome though...
