Stop linking videos i NEED IT! I might skip getting the header, and just get the cat-back system. As ive got a jap-speed 4-1 manifold and downpipe with de-cat at present. Cant see what benefits ill gain from a mugen header other then the mugen stamp!!!

It's one of the best 'off the shelf' headers IMO, but I do have one on my car :lol: Was part of getting my lude up to 228bhp

I'd find out which of those is insured mate, it's worth paying extra as you can't trust couriers as far as you can throw them when it comes to looking after parcels :lol: would be a shame to pay so much for a part then have it damaged/go missing and have no comeback due to no insurance
