MBH HEADERS

Just purchased a set of MBH headers with x pipe and finally got them in hand. Was wondering if there was any cutting or welding needed when removing the stock headers. I was hoping for a direct bolt on with clamps. I just don't want to have to cut out any of the factory exhaust if I don't have too. Any help is much appreciated Thank You

if you have the headers mid pipe and the x pipe. You cut absolutely nothing. I know cause I have this set up. It's direct bolt off stock bolt on new no cuts

I'm in DFW as well. I'd like to meet up sometime and hear the headers in person!

That FI group buy has me thinking..

And to OP, no cutting will be required.

Take my advice and install a v band set up. Slip fit on stainless leaks. Mine did and so has every other one I have seen.

Just add the mid-pipe to your setup and then it will be a bolt-on setup - no cutting or welding. It is WELL worth it - trust me.
