So RalliSport UEl Headers will take about 6 weeks to get here. Upon inspection when I took my airbox air duct off today, it looks like my header is seperated.
The part that is seperated is just below the arrow where the horizontal seam is, I was able to move the upper seam portion, so I assume it should not be moveable, correct? Would like to get this rectified as soon as possible since I think that is the reason for the oil smell. Any of you guy's run the HKS 409 Equal Length headers? (https://shop.bostonmotorsports.com/H...ld_p_1347.html ) or know a place to pick up OEM headers? I figure since I plan on doing the Tsudo Catback exhaust I might as well get aftermarket headers. Any input would be great, thanks. |

I might just be retarded, but I cannot find the PCV valve to inspect it for cleaning/replacement. Anyone got a good picture? I tried to look at the pic from one of the maintenance topics, but I could not line it up to my engine. Or should I just avoid checking the pcv valve? No CEL, just checking for maintenance.

Those headers are WRX headers. They will not fit on our cars. |

I have a 235 with a +48 offset. I had to roll, but I was also pretty low.
You may rub under hard cornering. |

Also, in the picture I am talking about the horizontal seam directly to the LEFT of the heatshield. The seam that is almost in line with that lower bolt at the corner of the heatshield. |

I have a 17x8 +35 offset w/ 245's. no roll and no pull, just lowered about an inch on Rce yellows/koni inserts. Rarely rubs under extremely aggressive cornering lol.

Custom modified wrx oem headers or custom modified 2.5I headers for uel. At the moment, the stock headers are not 100% equal length, and have some what of a rumble. If you extend the 4th cylinder outlet you can get a boxer rumble. Someone on lgt did it.
But in my opinion, getting headers is more of a headache vs cost. While rallisport aren't perfect, they have the least amount of issues compared to modding your own. |

Hopefully after driving it later tonight the smell has gone away. Today has been a productive day: car wash, RallyArmor UR install, plate holder installed, 3000k high beams, 4100k low beams, 3000k fogs, DRL delete, air filter change, oill change. Boy this car is easy to work on compared to my Audi. |
