PRO-1 EVO Manifolds are coming back!
Can you ship one on Monday? I'll call in the morning my time here in Redmond WA but I want to make sure I have it by the weekend. UPS ground should do the trick provided it's shipped on Monday.
Will I be able to get to all the bolt heads with the radiator in the car?
Thanks,
Sam

Got the header, no instructions (don't really need them) but it was supposed to tell me the bolt sizes to plug the holes. Little help?
I can't comment on the quality just yet as I haven't installed it, but the welds look very nice.

Okay, header is in. I set out to install this header, a Helix O2 housing, and a Greddy lower IC pipe this weekend. The header was the only item to fit like a glove and require no mods. The O2 housing bolt holes were too small and needed to be elongated to allow all 5 bolts/studs to fit. The Greddy lower IC pipe, aside from needing a hose barb added to it, didn't fit at all. The header was a breath of fresh air. Installation notes:
You will need to get some M16 X 1.50 bolts to plug the holes, oil pan drain plugs are what they are.
The driver's side stud didn't need to be cut down on mine but it might need to for someone else. I'm using shorter than stock studs as I am using a different turbo and I didn't re-use the stock ones. Once the stud is the right length, you'll need to put just a couple threads above the flange, just enough to get the nut started. Oh yeah, I couldn't re-use the washer on this one, not enough clearance with it. Anyhow, get the nut started then start the other nut and two bolts. I did this with the turbo hanging so life was easier for me. You will have to tighten the afore-mentioned nut before any others and continue to do so until everything is tight. Tightening the others first will force the nut into the tube and that would suck.
Sorry for my rambling, I'm trying to make some sense after a long weekend of messing with parts that didn't fit right.
The header WILL smoke on initial startup, this is normal. It looks very cool in there.
