Nope no tunnel brace or manifold bracket fit going to look into some spacers but everything is nice and tight.

Is your car already tuned for the catless setup? if not yet how has it been running?

Have not tuned it yet, ran fine yesterday but I don’t daily drive it so my next ride in it will be to the dyno for Tunning.

Ordered a set of spark plug heat shields although clearance looks good in all but one area. The pretty shiny stainless you see on the headers is almost gone lol but I expected that.

Last question will just the headers fit for now and can you add the x pipe later.?

A set of cats can be purchased seperately. I have done it before and I have a set now that will need to get put in if I go with this setup.

Sounds good!

Installed these headers and they are amazing. Only problem I'm having is that whenever I make right turns and only right turns, I feel my steering wheel make a grinding noise? Dash says to service the power steering.

Sounds similar to this guy's problem

Also, do these headers come with a replacement bolt like the texas speed headers do so the steering bolt doesn't hit the headers? Maybe thats the grinding?

Well I'm not having no electrical problems other than one of my reverse lights that went out. Other than that I don't think a harness is going to create any grinding noises when making right turns. These speed engineering headers DO NOT come with the replacement bolt.

That's probably what the grinding is. Need a new bolt for the steering shaft so it doesn't hit it.
