Classic STi headers same as Newage STi headers?
 
As above really, i have googled it but can't find anything of relevance.

So are the headers on a classic STi the same as those on a Newage STi?

Thanks in advance

Ian.

Yes they are the same.

Apart from the up-pipe

Thanks for the replies, wondered if they may be different due to the AVCS on the newage.
What is different about the up pipe?

Cheers Ian.

The up pipe on a sti has no cat in it.SJ.

lambda position is different, isn't it? New age down by the front of the engine, in the downpipe?

Please be pedantic, the reason I ask is I'm using a set of headers from a classic sti on my newage engine and am concerned they may be restrictive for the engine. I will leave as is if they are not.
As has been stated I had to install a boss for the lambda sensor and the uppipe has no cat so fingers crossed I'm ok.

Thanks Ian.

Did you weld a boss onto the cast steel headers? If yes, then unless you've used the correct wire / filler, it will probably crack and fall off :(
