I dont see the point. Now if your talking about a turbo manifold and downpipe, yes.

I did have a fitment probblem too to be fair nothing BFH couldn't fix.

It's also running b18 block and stock X members fault but i'll blame DC cause it is a real let down power wise.

it did NOTHING over my stock GSR exhaust mani.

Why? A header is probbly more important to an N/A car making power then the manifold is power wise on a turbo car, not that it's not a very important part on turbo cars as well.

I'm going to upgrade to a Spark probbly.

Holy Fu.ck that is nice. Everything looks to be equal length, which is the key to making power with a header. are the tubes larger than other aftermarket headers also???

kinda looks like they are a little bigger.

It's a very well made part sparks site seems to be dead atleast to me at work, and header sizing bigger isn't always better but it might be a tad bigger.

I'd asume with out measuring but by look the tubes are a tad longer as well. If you dig around you'll see it hangs with SSMP Bismoto Hytech etc.

Very good bang for buck you'll end up trading a 350 comptech DC etc in a while but a spark will hold up for a indepth N/A build.

Very true, my DC needed some beating and well wasn't worth it =/

Most any header will need some fabbing to stick in a 4th gen chassis and keeping A/C good luck.
