2003 zhp - power loss

Wow! That’s quite a few parts replaced; glad they all needed it, though. I’ll have to check my cats/O2 sensors now…

yeah, i'm keeping the car either as a continued daily driver, or its going to become my primary track car so i can retire the e36. so, one way or the other, this stuff needed to be done.

since we all hate threads without a resolution, and i'd been guilty here - i thought i'd update to let everyone know what took place with this issue.

so, after determining it needed cats i started planning. i looked at OE cats, aftermarket cats, headers, etc.

i ended up with the header kit from VAC motorsports (https://store.vacmotorsports.com/e46...age-p2936.aspx) - which, as it turns out, is the schmiedmann kit. it took seemingly forever to arrive, but it did finally get here...

i had a good friend with a shop perform the install. he said it was a bit of a fight, and not exactly plug-n-play, but it did go together.

the results are nothing short of outstanding. in addition to restoring the stock performance, it definitely feels like there's more now!

Glad you got it sorted out and thanks for the update on how.
