Stupid Header
What's up all?
So I'm getting on it the other night and I hear what sounds like an exhaust leak under my engine and I immediately think header leak as I have experienced this before.
I take it to an exhaust shop that I know and put it up on the rack. Turns out there's a Huge crack where everything collects together to go to the uppipe!!
It's a Borla header too! Time for a new header......
Anyone had any luck with certain aftermarket headers?
BTW it's so bad that my car sounds like its running straight headers and having trouble building any boost

He's already had unequal lenth headers. Do I have to explain to you what equal lengths are again?
Brian, have you looked into P&P'd stock headers? I just picked up a set a couple weeks ago full P&P'd by Grimmspeed w/ thermal coating and an EGT bung for $200.

Woodward,
I'll look into those PandP's headers. 200 bucks is hard to pass up. Paul- I really really want equal length. Unless you or someone out there has a nice set for a VERY nice price though I believe they're a tad out of my budget range.

I hear good things about the Perrin equals. In fact i'll be running them more than likely at some point.
I was always curious if the GT-Specs were any good.
Doesn't Borla back there stuff with a warranty of sorts??? IDk, might have been a different brand touting some high mileage warranty.
