Ok so I've never ever done headers on a car. Never really had the reason too (still really don't lol) but damn this car. Anyways, thanks to beef's and his amazing price he had on the SP it really got me wanting headers. Except I'm a scared pansy because of how loud it will make my xtremes, and no I don't want sports.
So after talking to [MENTION=14371]'Merica[/MENTION] about it and my dad all week long, my dad was talking to my uncle and my good friend who both work on engines and built many many cars, but mostly might be older or really old(mostly gm and dodge, some ford). The friend works on cars for living and restores them and my uncle works for briggs and stratton as one of their nationwide troubleshooting mechanics. So both have a great background and knowledge when it comes to engines.
Anyways, their concern was or their experiences are, trouble with aftermarket headers and leaks. I'm not sure if just things are different in today's world with how headers are built on these new cars, but that's their main concern. I do value their concern because I've seen them turn shit situations into gold when it comes to repairing cars.
Are there any known issues or leaks or general concerns with headers and the s550? I can't recall a single issue here on the forums. Again I'm really a header noob so feel free to share the knowledge.
