Do not bother with any of that generic no name crap. The only chip you want in your car is one that is programmed to your particular engine with your particular mods. Programmed using a real dyno not a butt dyno, I might add. Cheap headers are made with cheap materials and cheap methods of construction, you get what you pay for!

i heard as long as u go in and have someone lay down some nice welds ur fine. and if u are worried about the rust spray some high temp paint on it.

what you pay is what you get

My megan was too damn short and sat on my oil pan, so fitment really pissed me off. That will change eventually.

Had to dent oil pan so it wouldnt sit on it :x

"You get what you pay for"
