Are yours Up pipe 3bolt ?

As every 3-bolt headers are copy of GT Spec and some are great copies and some are awful and they doesn't fit as you think

But from my experience RCM are best,we are used them on previous occasions and they're been best with GT Spec

Thanks,Jura

Yup, it is 3 bolt. The ones I have are japspeed and in all honesty I wouldnt recommend to anyone, some japspeed products I would but definitely not the headers.

I think I will buy the RCM manifold and try and mate with my japspeed up pipe, worst case I have to buy a new up pipe and modify again.

Sorry to bring this old thread back up.. but what where your fitment issues, fitting the headers to the block, or the uppipe to the turbo?
I'm thinking about getting 3 port japspeed headers, and build a custom uppipe.
Thks!
