Did you weld your headers on or bolted them on?
I just ordered my fa20club catted headers and am just curious.

I dont feel comfortable doing something that will render me unable to go back to stock.
With that being said, I "will NOT ever, ever, everrrrr" weld my headers. WeeeEEEEEEee will never ever, everrrrr, weld our headers....

 And definitely weld them. Its the best way to ensure a total seal to the block. Disclaimer: Information above may not be accurate or advisable in any situation

if I were you I wouldn't buy just headers, I would look for headers already welded to the head so that then I could simply bolt on.
now, since you did buy specific headers already I beleive you should follow what the manufacturer says and if you are not sure, you'd be better off asking him than making a whole thread (although in this case I really appreciate it as it does make my commute this morning so much better) please let us all know if fa20club says you should weld those |

Welding headers on is just stupid. I would suggest brazing, and/or zip ties.
