It was honestly a night and day difference from my car. Immediately upon pressing the pedal, the car is unbelievably responsive. Then again, he has the Kleemann pulley kit as well, while mine is bone stock.

Kleeman and Supersprint make headers for the m111. And there is a pulley kit available for your car from ASP which is very affordable.

You have more options than the m271 to gain power.

There are currently two headers available for the M271, but neither are made by sponsors of this forum.

I have the Kleeman header and pulley's and the K-box and fuel regulator and it goes pretty well. I do like the looks of the header Car Lab had with the bolt flange aft of the cat. That would be nice not to have to cut the factory exhaust.

CarLab's headers are from a manufacturer in Taiwan and have yet to be tested/proven.

To all - There are headers out there, just gotta do some reasearch.

so there will be 2 kinds of audiences here:

1. Change of the stock headers ONLY
2. Change of the stock headers as well as the cats

How many will there be for option 1 and 2 ?
hi Mgheaders do you still selling sport headers for m271 RHD i am interested

It will be great to have a complete solution having the headers and the high flow cats running in pairs, however, the operational resources having to set up the builds involved, time, planning as well as other transparent factors. If the end demands are less than 50, this would not make sense to have the line setup, honestly..

Unless we are looking at 150 to 200 pcs, we could really work something out..we have also proceed to order a sample of your stock headers (LHD)from DC so that we can make sure that the finish product of ours would be a direct fit solution to your LHD vehicle. However, your stock header will take at least 2 months to reach us. Unless anyone of you could purchase your stock header and send it to us, that will help alot in terms of time and production. We will bear the cost of this headers as well as the freight.

Let us know and we are keen to hear from you.....
