Frequently Asked Questions
Will this header work with my current exhaust system?
This header connects to standard downpipe fitment. You'll need to confirm your existing downpipe diameter matches the header outlet — measure before ordering if your system has been modified.
Do I need to prep or paint the header before installation?
Stainless steel won't rust, so no paint is required. The header can be installed bare or ceramic-coated for heat management if desired — that's personal preference.
What do I need to install this?
Basic hand tools and a jack to access the engine bay from below. You'll use the original exhaust manifold fasteners — check your vehicle's service manual for torque specs.
