That's what I have on Igor. I am disappointed with them. The right muffler flange is 2"" lower than the left.

I am going to be running them until I can get some heat exchangers with 1.75 primaries.

I am interested in doing these for you at some point.

Cool!

They will have to be slightly lower than the stock HEs. The right CV joint is touching the current header with the suspension at full droop. I also have to figure out how to put a muffler other than the Supertrapps on them.

Funny.. at the last AX, I had 3 different teenagers ask how the exhaust got out of the muffler.. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/av-943.gif)

Is your current setup like the factory setup?

I have the exact same headers that are pictured in this thread.

If you look at this picture, you can see the triangle shaped collector, and how close it is to the CV boot. When the car is sitting on the ground, the cv boot is not touching. And that is after I beat a dent into the header with a ball peen hammer to make sure it will clear. Yours use a flat collector, so I think it will be less of an issue, but this is all custom so you never know. That's why I think the HE will have to be slightly lower.

Ideally a f1 merge collector would be more ideal for your application..

Horsepower Engineering - AKA Bursch. I ran into interference with Bursch headers on a stock 914-6, one of the tubes hit the oil cooler and could not be bolted up. I contacted them, sent pictures, got the "we want to make them fit right". So I sent the "bad" one to them at my expense, 14 months later still hadn't gotten it back, I called and they said, "sorry we just never got to it" and sent it back to me. That was the last Bursch I purchased.

Ben or Marty is who you want to make your exhaust.

Those are factory GT headers and are said to perform poorly because of primary length

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/agree.gif) But I'd also add tangerine for /4 headers

I have Marty's MSDS coated headers on my /6, they are beautiful and fit without issues.
Someday I'll get Ben's heat exchangers for heat.
I also have a /4 tangerine 1-7/8" coated set hanging on the wall here...just need to find a home for them.

Thank you Perry & Mark for the kind mention ¡
We mfg and stock the 1.75" od 9146 headers for the 3.6L + up conversions. Clay ...I'm sure that Ben or I can put something together (with clearence) for your NFG headers that you are running at present.
