Default New Headers Fitted Today

Took a little trip up to Darlington today to see Harvey Smith who had some ported & wrapped standard headers to fit for me, it took about 2 1/2 hours all in and that included wrapping my up-pipe & down-pipe, when he finished he asked me to take the car out for a little spin to make sure everything was OK and to be honest i didn't find much difference in performance with them BUT when i got the car out on the open road what a difference, the turbo spools up about 500rpm earlier and then there is just tons of torque , so if anyone is thinking of getting some headers i can highly recommend Harvey Smith's and at a bargain price even if it's about a 580 mile round trip

PS...he also does front mount intercoolers for newage cars now £580 fitted
