05-08 RL Headers

Does anyone know of any aftermarket performance headers for the 05-08 RL?

no, because there are none.

there are two cats coming off the heads.
you can replace these two cats with straight pipes.

which will gain power!!


currently only RV6 makes the "pre-cat deletes"

I just did some research on pcd's and it said that your car will fail emissions when you install them?

that would be true for most cat deletes, you should probably change your question to say:

My s2000 has cat delete and passed smog, as long as no cel you should be good unless however they do the sniffer test then your sol, and yes technically not headers maybe a header x2? Lol idk but what the hey, they work, they do stink, and.. That's all for now.

Emissions in TX? I thought you were farther away from tree-hugging Austin than that.

RV6--also has high flow cats, so there will be no emissions issues in the future or resale problems, thats what I did, I am very happy with the results, also the J-pipe and first 2- Resonators Delete help with Power and Acceleration.

Plus, the sound is awesome!!!!!
