Brand new and still boxed.
Took advantage of the cheap group buy but didn't get round to fitting them.
Circumstances now changed so these are up for sale.
If you missed out on the group buy, this is an ideal opportunity to get a set which haven't been used, with flanges guaranteed to be flat (They were checked).
The headers come with all fittings and gaskets and a flexible up-pipe which allows for an easy leakage free installation.

Thumbs up

bump

I think these are probably better on a 2litre than the gruppe-s sets.

I ran the big bore(solid up-pipe) gruppe-s set and felt I lost a fair bit of low down torque. I then fitted the smaller bore gruppe-s(come with flexi up-pipe thats cr4p IMO) and the bottem end felt much stronger, especially in second gear.the only thing is that the slip-joints between the heads now leak when cold.

bttt for you alan!


I like these headers- no leaks - no problems. (apart from the fact they are quite low and with no undertray I have to be careful what I go over (fords/speed bumps)

group buy on an ally undertray ??
