Jesse, according to I believe HyperRev? They're said to be the best headers for AE111, Hi-Flow CAT is preferable cause there is no point having good flow from exhaust then a bottle neck @ the CAT

those headers would be nice to get hold of. they would go well with the brand new apexi n1 just bought today. does anybody know where these headers can be got. |

Lolz, if you know how good they are, then you also know its impossible to find the spiral one... Apexi made two style Headers just like HKS, a GT Spec (Straight) and Spiral but don't remember the official name... |

what headers would come even near to the performance of the apexi and the cusco p-ball if these two are so hard get. |

not much to tell the truth there all very marginal. i think the best one you can by new is the hks racing one. i think but the best value is the fgk one |

The best results I have seen on dyno sheet was with FGK (Fujitsubo 4-2-1 manifolds). They tried on the same ae111 the FGK, the HKS racing and the cusco p-ball |

The gasket I'm assuming he's missing is the Header Gasket (Engine || Headers) and the gasket from the 4-2 || 2-1 part, possibly even the last time from the 2-1 to the CAT? XD |

thats what i was thinking. exhasust to head shouldnt be a problem. and would a normal 2 bolt flange gasket with the original gasket not do the job for the cat . its the 2 into one flange that is the intresting one. i think |

May have to make that gasket? It's just a flat gasket right? Could make a templete out of cardboard then transfer it over to gasket material stuff that should be easily obtained from exhaust shops? |
