I forgot who it was, but did you try these headers after all? I remember you had bought them but never got around to leaving feedback. Thanks!

I wouldn't call that is a header. It a copied of the factory exhaust manifold and that's why it so cheap.

100% agree with Klinh. Although the build quality may be great, in my opinion and experience it should be called a 'tubular exhaust manifold', not a header. No true collector - not a header IMO. All that being said, it probably will flow marginally better than a stock cast manifold.

Kleemann's "header" for the 63 AMG is very similar, and people post gains.

I'd have to see some dyno results..... but don't judge it by looks alone.

I have a set that have not been installed yet. They look somewhat small after receiving them. I'll do a before/after dyno; hopefully in the next 2 months.
