Default Cheers to API

I had some of Harvey's headers fitted at API yesterday. Top qualiy place with a sound bunch of staff. There's plenty of tea and coffee on offer and plenty to look at while your there (not fogetting the great B roads surrounding the place)

BTW David, the headers made a nice difference! The car pulls stonger from 3,000 rpm up and spool has improved as well. Well worth the money and effort of driving up to you to have them fitted.

Cheers

Anders you are very welcome. Thanks for coming.

The headers are one of the simplest, value for money, improvements you can make to an Impreza Turbo and some are sceptical when I ' sell ' the idea to them. Once done, they all share your experience.

Good Luck David APi

What is the cost of Harvey's headers (minus fitting)? Are these ported and wrapped? Interested to know as I am considering having some of these.

Anders had some of Harveys headers that we fitted for him. We do our own and sell a set almost every time someone has their engine rebuilt here. With somewhere over 850 rebuilds done in 6 years that's an awful lot of polished headers out there.

Try ours.

I replied to your PM with the pricing.

I don't want to P1ss on David's fire and tell you to buy Harvey's headers, but I can tell you I'm impressed with Harvey's headers.

Cheers

Cheers Anders. Done properly these are a worthwhile, cost effective mod. Probably number two on the list after a 3" full decat exhaust for best power, torque and spool gains.
With bench flow testing and investment in jigs etc. I know I have it off to a T but I don't mind a bit of competition from someone I regard as a friend and straight talker.
