Haha, I ended up cutting off one of the nuts from the downpipe to the cat cause it was so rusted! Good luck!

I wish I saved up a little bit more for Comptechs... I didn't have any fitment issues though and the welds look good for my Megan's but the damn hissing is driving me nuts! Stupid leaking gaskets...

Are these headers that bad? Spending 1k for headers is stupid for me, honestly I could put that money to good use.

I don't care that much I just wish I would get my lazy ass to fix the leak. Then I wouldn't have a problem with them.

Yep, that cricket sound is sickening till I added an extra gasket from the cat to the down pipe and I have no complaints, issue was fixed for me, except for that first flex being the first thing to get hit when driving over bumps.

No regrets about getting CT's installed. I love them.

Enjoy the headers.

This is the latest batch (4th batch) so i'm thinking its just for correct fitment.

The third batch that I have has that front flex too. Everything starting from the third batch and up fits correctly.

So many people had fitment problems they added that flex portion to it because they can't make a well engineered product.

kensukikatayo notice how no one else other than the thread starter has a signature shown. Do you think you could do the same? I'm sure everyone is pleased to know what kind of brake pads you're using but we don't need to see it everytime you post Just a thought.
