So, it seems ill never find a 4-1 header lol.. so the other day i stripped the tin from my 2.0 (non SS (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) ) heat exchangers and inside was one pipe per side?

I have two small "stub pipes" that go into the case, theyre about a foot long and have a flange on the eng. This is where the exchanger connects to, but is it correct there is only going to be one pipe per side??

just doesn't seem right...

saw this ad on samba and now im really confused: http://www.thesamba.com/vw/classifieds/detail.php?id=539584

he says he stripped 2.0L HE's, but his has 2 pipes per side...

what's wrong here...

EDIT: here's a pic of what's on my engine. one side is removed (stripped a stud so i left the other alone (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif))

i believe the hunter header is the one that exits the other side of the car... i think you have to talk to george at AA to get a new one... no idea what the story is on that one. the advantage to that header is that you dont have to modify your clutch cable since the collector is on the shift console side. the bad thing i remember is that the header pipes go straight to the head of the engine.

The eurorace rocks because it has stub pipes and you mount the headers onto the stub pipes. it is a HUGE awesome to have this since you dont have to worry about pulling head studs every time you need to pull the exhaust...
