Heh, caught that, too. It's fixed!
At this point, i'm shooting for an end of May completion date. Little later than i initially thought, but i'd rather make sure i get ALL the right parts, quality parts, and only have to do the work once.
The only big ticket items left are the seats, tires, flywheel, and gauge setup. :D

Figured i'd ask here because you guys rock. :D
/brown-nosing.
Anyways... shopping for headers right now. Here's my questions:
1) Can i use a true KLZE ECU with my MX3 wiring harness? Or do i have to get a chipped ECU?
2) How many o2 sensors does the KLZE need in order to not throw CELs and run right?
The reason i ask #2 is because i'll be running a wideband. And if i can just install the wideband into an existing bung on the headers, that'd be cool. If i have to get a bung welded in, that works, too, i'd just rather not.
I suppose i could just get the wideband to simulate narrowband o2 readings like the Innovate i have on the MX6 does, but i'm trying to avoid that, and it would hinge on the answer to #2.

KLZE ECUs should be plug and play for the mx-3 harness, you will need to run the mx-3 MAF (JE50) since that's what the KLZE ECU runs.
I know there's a control unit people are running in the KLs to eliminate the o2 sensors...you'll probably have to check probetalk or mx6.com about that though. Asides from that, they're supposed to run 2 o2 sensors to run properly.-Jack

I like pacesetters, give off a deeper tone, but if you don't use a resonator, yea it'll be raspy. The ebay headers don't sound the best either in my mind, too high pitch.-Jack

The Probe guys say the Pacesetters sound like crap because they're unequal length i guess.
I have a resonator... i'm hacking up a Corksport Power Series exhaust for this build.
I think in the end at this point, i'll just get what i can find for cheap. Either way, it'll sound interesting, and i don't think power will be an issue. Unless, of course, someone can convince me one way or the other.

I am also using a hacked up CS power series! $30 at the JY FTW! I am going to ditch the CS muffler for the ZX2 S/R Borla, which can be opened on the inlet to 2.5" and already has a 2.5 outlet. I will be cutting off the tip though... yuck, I'll replace it w/ plain 2.5 stainless exhaust pipe, maybe w/ a turndown? Here:

Yeah, I've gotten pretty lucky with this build so far. I have been getting hella deals on most everything, which is good, because this is my secondary project, and I am trying to save $ for my wagon's next incarnation. Enough OT.
Concealer- FWIW, these headers are pretty decent, very impressed actually, they are gasket matched at every flange, and appear to have been tested for leaks. They came w/ all necessary stainless hardware (except header to head) and every gasket. I know that's all pretty much a given with more expesive kits, but for this price you never know. The welds all look good, and I see no real flaws, other than unequal primaries. I would probably reccomend them, but obviously I haven't installed or heard them yet.Current:
