harvey's your man again! LOL.

He ports the OEM ones (upipes too I think). It gains you 500rpm arlier turbo spool I think

He may even sell pre-ported ones 'over the counter' so to speak - and you might get a surcharge back on your existing ones (although not sure).

joz8968 I've already got some equal length headers, I fancied having a bash at doing it myself. Do you think this is advisable without expert help. Or do you think I'd just be best off sending them to Harvey's?

I'd suggeat that if you've never done it before, then send them off to him - you'll get a proper job done etc.

As Mark said, try the search function - there's a thread with the procedure and helpful photos by another member whose done it, etc...
