'94 2.2L exhaust manifold/ Y pipe; online source?


Recommended Posts

i could use some help finding a new manifold for my legacy wagon. mine has the cat and O2 port right at the junction. i'm having trouble finding anything like it online. is there an alternative? one without the cat but with the port that will still be a direct fit?

 

i'm going to call around tomorrow at some salvage yards with hope, but last i checked they had nothing as old as my car.

 

thanks!

 

ps. $100 +/- a few would be about right for the budget. otherwise, i'll just have to weld this one up, again. had it welded right after the junction under the head, but the weld is failing. so, not sure how long another weld will even hold

the 99 RS exhaust will bolt up to the 2.2 engine but exhaust side i think differs.

 

right. the tail end section takes a sharp turn away from the direction this original manifold goes. iow's, right angle vs a straight continuation

90-94 have the cats welded to the y-pipe where 95+ Later the cats bolt on.

99 dual port y-pipe will fit and work if you replace the cats with 95+ type that bolt on.

Might be able to cut the cats off and weld them to the 99 y-pipe but I'm not sure.

These are both aftermarket but show the difference. 90-94 style

is the 95+ a side mount cat or something?

 

edit: nevermind. i see how they mount and are shaped. again, at an angle instead of straight on

Yep several dual port y-pipes available in CO 80919 if his does not workout.

out of curiosity, what would you be asking for one of those goodies? this repair is turning out to be more costly than i'd figured.

thanks, folks, issue resolved. with this integrated cat thing, the easiest cheapest way to go will be to have a repair section welded in. but, now i know of options for the future if/when i actually need to also replace the cat. thanks!!!

just wanted to post some notes to this subject...

 

got the manifold welded up nicely at a local seeburg .....from the split section at the head all the to the cat replaced. however, it still sounded like a lawnmower. took it home and discovered the muffler was toast. sounded like a can of dry beans rattling about once i got it off. got all that done only to find my motor mounts were/are bad. this contributed to if not entirely caused the need for this last manifold repair. grrrr. yeah...i've had a popping/clanking sound from the front end crop up during the time of this manifold issue. replacing a bad'ish 2yr old ball joint and fairly worn sway bar end links didn't fix it. and, since the rest of the front end has had complete renovations over the past year or so it had to be something else. a large pry bar revealed the culprit. the mounts must have been going bad for some time
