Ok...So here they are again....I decided not to sell them right after listing them, as I found two cracks.... I personally repaired and dressed the cracks, and since I dont need them, I offer them to anybody who can help me get my $$$ back! Currently, they are painted Dupli-color Extreme heat CHROME (1500 dergree heat), but I am told that paint just burns off. They would make a nice first install pic though!!! They are not blemish free but they are high-performance headers, with the up pipe and cross over for your hot air!

Pics included....They were bought off ebay for $225, and I am trying to get my money back...So, $225.00 firm, plus shipping

Thanks all!


John

the pieces are pretty simple:

2 headers, driver header with o bung and o2 sensor, a y pipe, with is the cross over, and two s-type pipes...the longer of the two is the other half of the cross over, and the shorter pipe is the pipe to your turbo, AKA, the up-pipe. I do not have a down pipe, or any hardware to connect these pipes, however, any SS bolts should work fine with 3 bolt flange gaskets from an auto parts store.

Thanks!!!

That looks like the set-up that was on the GN when I bought it. Mine had rusted out. I noticed quite a performance drop when I went back to stock. I'd buy them but not in the budget. :(
 
i was 100% ready to powdercoat or ceramic-coat the headers so that they are preserved a bit better, but since I dont have the car anymore, I figure i dont need to unless they wont sell...If I did coat them, i guarantee I would have sold them for over 500!!! lol

Thanks for the post!

John ;)
 
fgordon, first in line! Sale pending....


I must note before buying, headers are kenne bell, not duttweiler... The only thing not included is the down pipe. Again, these are kenne bell headers and x-over....Not duttweiler. Fgordon, ygm!

Wrong !!!! They are Duttweiler headers the guy in the other thread got it wrong. If you ever saw Kenne Bell headers they are quite unique and are built similar to stock headers but they attach with "v" clamps not bolts. Heres' a pic. Notice the the O2 bung in the correct place and the upward curve of the passenger header.

Kenne Bell headers were the best built for a hot air but Duttweilers are pretty good also.
 
Much better clearance with the Kenne Bell. Up-pipe on Duttweilers comes up beside the downpipe. TIGHT. :eek:
 
lol...stock up-pipe and dp had a tight fit too!!! lol...I think out of all the set-ups, per dollar, the Duttweiler was the most complete, and best fitting set-up. I have postons on my brothers car, and as always, there is an issue with the up-pipe not totally sealing to the turbo. I heard that with other sets, like ATR, they were more rigid, and tougher to get to fit right. My twin has all ATR pipes except for the headers. The postons were the best performance gain, but like I said, the leak is a major flaw. I never had enough $$$ to get a set of ATR headers, but I heard they were nice...just pricey....

Fgordon, you got a PM...I am going to UPS tomorrow!

Thanks!!

John :biggrin:
 
Yea I know stock is tight, but the Duttweiler up-pipe comes from under the car not off the header.So you have a larger area of tightness. :rolleyes:
