If you have a Boxster or a 996 you can buy stainless headers for $100.
However they want $800 for these puppies for our 914's. They could have at least copied the better 2.0 HE's instead. Fire that marketing guy.  |

Ha ha me too ,looks like they had lots of scrap pipe ? ,jeez someone give the guy a bender ,really nothing tuned length there...square port for 914???.
Ben where are you ?,you need to check them out. Appears the Chinese stuff has fitment issues,yes the welds look nice but a mate was doing a 16v conversion on a mk1 Golf and said the same about the welding and I pointed out a great deal of the bends were "fusion" welded,only filler welds were on the manifold plate and the 4 way connector,and guess what it didn't fit. |
