Headers are at about a 9-10 week ETA right now, best to find dealers with them in stock or have them on a stocking order

I got mine from RR Racing about a 2 weeks after ordering mine at the beginning of the year too. I was told that RR Racing had moved facilities and things were backed up a few weeks, I didn't get a tracking number until it was finally shipped out.

"Jwconeil;You won’t be disappointed. Love how mine sound and the performance is great." ... Please share details how the install went, any fitment issues, how long did it take, anything removed, retained Cats, etc. TIA!

Mine have finally shipped after 9 long weeks!

On my previous F, I installed the headers like most everyone else; dropping the subframe and working in a very confined space. This time, I pulled the motor/tranny from the top since I am refreshing a 130k platform. Far easier IMO since I was already doing a radiator, trans and oil coolers, exhaust, plugs, motor mounts, starter, gaskets and a handful of other items.



Work in progress

My car came with the PPE headers and JoeZ exhaust. It did have an exhaust leak, which I fixed on some jack stands. It leaked at the collector. I don’t have cats.

Mine only came with spacers with different size adapters.

They come with o2 spacers that will not cause a CEL.
