I have a 2009 ralliart, just found out my headers are cracked! I've been looking at other threads but I found nothing. Has anyone done a headers upgrade? I need something that will take the banging of a Rally/Tarmac track. Thanks everyone!

 

Some used ones will pop up occasionally in the classifieds here. Upgrading the exhaust manifold on the stock turbo won't benefit too greatly since it already spools so quickly. Last I saw, there really aren't many aftermarket options aside from OEM. Not much of a market for them.

My exhaust manifold cracked a few years back and I did a direct OEM swap, holding up just fine.

 

Yep, mine cracked 1 1/2 years ago on the 3rd runner.
Just bought Evo X stock turbo setup for $900. (turbo, manifold, ic, pipes).
Since I was doing the install myself I saved a lot. The labor is a lot of work.

 

how many kms/miles did you have when you did the swap? and have any issues?

 

I might have a company (not CBRD, but very reputable in Evo X community) interested in making a short runner tubular exhaust manifold for the stock ralliart turbo setup. Definitely won't ever crack lol.

PM me if any of you guys are interested.
