Exhaust Size

I have a 2000 Cavalier LS Sedan 2.2L and wanted to know what the stock exhaust size on it is because I was looking at getting some new headers.
Thanks

I wouldn't recommend getting any sort of performance header without a full exhaust setup. You won't see much of a gain (5hp at best) and your under-hood temperature will skyrocket.

with a painted header, yes. i satin traffic today with my ceramic coated header for about 15 minutes. fan never came on, temp never went above 210. with a ceramic header, your engine bay stays MUCH cooler than even the stock manifold. but yes, do your exhaust all at once. if you plan on staying n/a, go with 2.25. if using power adders, 2.5.

& stop saying "headers", you sound silly.

Our cars have 1 header, singular.

most V6 & V8 have "headers" as in "more than one header" (2)
