Is my stuff included in this shipment?

I is gonna get the downpipe fitted when my replacement gearbox goes in (which has been on my garage floor for a month now) seeing as it has to come off anyway ... and my current box is just about on its last legs, so much so that I am not driving the car so I hope all is well with the arrangements!

From LA to UK by air, about 5 days max. Clear customs, about 3 days, then onto Chrome.
All sounds normal to me as we do stacks of flying bits in from China etc each week.
Nothing to worry about unless Chrome IS in Cuba.....

Chrome, please do whatever you can to get mine forwarded onto me as soon as is practical. As mentioned, first week of September is pretty critical to me to avoid a lot of re-scheduling. Thanks in advance.

Sorry, meant the new ones.

Steve, I have a set of those (v.1) on the Impreza and they are a pain in the a$$ and I had to have the collector welded to the uppipe. These are for the Legacy. Do yours have a flexible uppipe?

Guys,

Just checked. Our package is now in the hands of Heathrow security.....finally British soil. Lets hope HMCE don't hold onto them for long!!!

The long road is beginning to near the end.

Thanks chrome, has to be the Gruppe-S as I know they won't kill the bottom end having been bitten with other headers before. Won't hijack the thread further

as a reminder:

re: 'bung's'- from Pirtek- the bolts were:

M14 - £1.64+vat
M18 - £1.87 +VAT !!!

www.pirtek.co.uk and ask for:

METRIC SOLID PLUG 1.5 PITCH (APM-14MM)
METRIC SOLID PLUG 1.5 PITCH (APM-18MM)

Pirtek:
http://www.pirtek.co.uk/site/English/index.asp?lang=1
click on Pirtek products on the top left of the menu,
>product catalogue
>adapter catalogue on the pop up window,
>metric adapters
>APM (metric Male plug) - make sure its the 1.5 pitch one!

its the M14 and M18 you might be needing..
