un-equal you will keep the scooby burble
eual length loose the burble

dont buy cheep ones off ebay, only ones to buy would be the gt-spec headers. buy them from mocom racing, as flat 4 online are!!! sh*te

they will improve tourque mainly, but will free up a few more hourses, good if your iming to the 350 bhp mrk

Get the GT Spec headers. They are the best of the lot.

i ported and polished my headers before i bought the gt spec. you do notice a slight better/quicker spool up if you port them. and so easy to do.
