Default RCM Un-equal headers, Anyone using them?

As above, Anyone got some?

I ordered some last night with an Up pipe and wondered what people using think of them.

Being RCM I would think they are probably good, but don't you think you should have sought peoples opinion before you ordered them?
You don't say what other engine mods you've made, as on their own, I don't think you'll see cost effective benefits. As part of a planned power upgrade, including of course a re-map, they will contribute to the overall result.

Best over 350+ bhp and as part of a planned package of upgrades - beautifully made but need wrapping ceramic coating ideally

They are being fitted with De-cat exhaust system, Fuel pump and air filter. Not alot I know but you got to start somewhere and mods will grow once my Holiday is paid for.

Just getting what I can done before it goes for mapping.

I would be careful about thrashing it until remapped after that lot as that will free up the breathing quite a bit and possibly take it a bit lean. Maybe run with some octane booster (NF Race gets my vote) until tweaked?
