Hey guys, I'm usually more active on the bimmer's forums... but I recently bought an 04 E55 sight unseen, which has a couple known issues, first of which is an exhaust manifold leak at higher rpm.

Since I'll be replacing at least one manifold, I'm looking at investing in a set of headers. I don't want to trow money at the car for no reason so anyone with good feedback on ebay Headers, or would care to make a suggest, your comment are welcomed.

Thanks

I just had Eurocharged mid-length headers installed on my E500 and couldn't be happier.
They are actually designed for your car but the exhaust manifolds are the same so they fit.
Eurocharged does run specials on their headers and for what I paid they can't be beat.
I would also recommend having them ceramic coated to keep underhood temps down and promote long term appearance benefits.
Happy motoring.

Good tips - I'll see if Eurocharged have a Canadian distributor. Anyone knows, let me know.

Thanks

While you're at it you might as well get their ECU tune.
I did.

There is a Eurocharged in Toronto, however in my personal experience they dont have the same pricing as the Eurocharged places in the states. I saved a ton of cash buying multiple items (including Eurocharged Headers) and having them shipped from Eurocharged in the US...
Hundreds of dollars in savings even with our garbage exchange rate of last year.

Eurocharged tunes are worth the money. I'm very happy with mine on my E63.

+1 I am very pleased with their pulley and tune combo. It made a huge difference.

Tw2 buy nakangs again use savings for headers it really opens top end!! They will put duty free price on manifest just ask them!

Haha you love your nankangs! I will at some point but trust me a car with headers and nankangs is much slower than stock headers and some decent tires below 100km/hr. Just with pulley tune I get traction light 1500rpm+ in the dry in gears 1-3.
