Andy,
I run them on my 1.8. They are functional, but I really think going route of the European Header is worth considering/waiting for. Workmanship on the KH is ok. Lack of stub tubes is a drag. Mine needed to be filed perfectly flat were the tubes meet the head to get a seal that wouldnt allow leaks. Positives are they are lightweight and you get best power for $$$ spent if you ignore quality issues. Power increase was signficant. You have heard my car and I run 15 discs - fairly loud. Not sure I would tolerate if this car was anything more than an autocross toy for me at its current level. You can run as few as 7 discs and still get better performance than the stock system - however its still a bit noisey. I like the sound, but I'm a bit of a kook when it comes to driving load type 4 engines. To me a T4 doesnt sound good unless its blasting. |
