I have the Gruppe s headers and up-pipe!

They were working fine so I got rid of my old up-pipe

Now they've started to blow like a nice sounding tractor - but its easier to do an up-pipe swap while the up-pipe is being machines on the flanges

Can anyone help out???

Steve

From: Leeds - It was 562.4bhp@28psi on Optimax, How much closer to 600 with race fuel and a bigger turbo?

I'm glad it was that mate, even though you did have to drive all the way up to mine to see it in the dark

Might be worth getting Powerstation to check all the nuts when they sort it out. I did with mine, they were all OK but made me feel better that I had done it.

Yours sounded worse than mine though which makes me think that the bottom one may be loose as well, hopefully not.
