Will do. About the only thing that would keep me from going is rain.

There shouldnt be any fitment problems. These headers already been tested and fit 100% no problem. These headers actually have better clearance then the stock manifolds believe it or not.

I'm glad that you got your header.. but a year is a long wait.

Keep us updated with the installation, and I look forward to what EKT will offer as a vendor.

If I was worried about clearence problems and steering componenets (which I'm not really) I'd be more worried about the steering shaft / u joint than the rack itself. The collectors should sit where the cats currently sit and I'm pretty sure the collectors take up less space than the stock cat convertors.

Still planning on a Wednesday install BTW, I'll be sure to take pics!

You are right, a year is a very long time to wait. However a lot of things happened. These headers will not be sold under the EKT name, i purchased the rights for these headers and they will be manufactured under a new management and a new name (i will post the info as soon as i become a vendor as to not break any rules).

Anyhow, there wont be a wait for these headers anymore as they are in stock
