Mirage Header in a OZ

Hey pple, my buddy has a 01mirage coupe with a HP racing header in it. He just got a turbo and wanted to give me him header. im just curious if it will fit??? our engine bays look EXACTLY alike. i know the mirage a 1.8 but the only difference seems to be that our lancer engines have been bored out to a 2.0.. you guys think the header will fit? comes with a downpipe also and is ceramic coating! it's pretty nice. let me get some imput. thanks

i dont believe it would fit otherwise lancer ppl would be buying mirage headers and to my knowledge they dont. that would be a lot fo work testfitting it to find out if doesnt fit.

RPW had to lengthen there headers slightly to fit the 2.0.

I think Kamikaze was intially selling mirage headers to lancers but after tight fitment left rattles they adjusted the length of their headers too.

It might fit but the might be some metal touching issues that cause a lot of rattling.

the header will bolt up to the head but it won't clear the oil pan since the 2.0L block has a larger pan.

I know a brand I can recomend (Large grin on face) which is specifically tailored for both naturally aspirated and supercharged vehicles.
