Do not get the Scholenfeld headers. They do not fit, and its not because of a heater box. They hit engine crossmember and lower control arm mount heavily on the passenger side. I positioned my motor every which way trying to get them to fit, no dice. If you want long tubes spend the cash and get the BRPs. Expensive by drop in nicely.


Well the main reason I want an inexpensive set is because I want the car to be drivable while I gather parts to build a single turbo setup down the road. I don't want to spend alot on something I am not going to use later. I guess I could always try to resell them.

Both sides? Thought you were just using them on the passenger side? Minor tweak on the passenger side right?

Best I can tell from your pics there shouldnt be any AC box interference. What do you think?

Thanks.

Both sides will work, driver side has no issues whatsoever...BUT the collector angles toward the door, its not straight so i would have had to cut my crossmember more to get my exhaust to it so since i already had the shoenfield i used it...not a big deal i would go with them again in heartbeat....

Have you guys all used the long tubes? I'm about done with long tubes personally, would rather use the mid length ones.
