QUOTE(silver03GS @ May 28 2008, 04:55 AM) If they're made specifically for your engine than they should be straight bolt on and no fabrication should be required. And if there is fab work required then they sold you a piece of crap header that was not meant for your car in the first place and you got screwed. But like I said if it's a site that you trust, then they should send you the right one and there shouldn't be any fabrication work required. Not necessarily true. The LONG tube headers are not a direct bolt on as they are meant for a car removing emissions, replacing out to a HFC, etc. The SHORT tube headers are designed for street use and are in fact a direct bolt on system. Before you spew out your opinion, you may want to ensure its a valid comment.

QUOTE(slammam30 @ May 27 2008, 03:36 PM) Are these headers off of tearstone.com direct bolt on or do they require some fab work to get them in place? RPW 3/1 Street Design Headers Long Tube - 6G72/74 Did you even read the product description?? Long Tubes - QUOTE Note: Succesful installation of these headers requires modification of the stock downpipe to be flanged to bolt up to these headers. These headers DO NOT bolt directly up to your cat-back. Short Tubes - QUOTE The RPW system is designed to bolt up to the original cat back exhaust with the purchase of the RPW high flow cat section or test pipe with no modifications needed. No welding or fitment of flanges, everything is pre manufactured to bolt right up.
