Header gasket question
 

Hi I ordered a borla uel header this week and I am in the market to buy gaskets to prevent future leaks. I found the grimspeed gaskets on ft86club. Is that all I need as far as gaskets? Just one gasket? To me it looks like I need to order two.

They come in pairs as far as I know.

You need two gaskets for the header, and you should return that POS borla header and get a JDL.

What's the difference?

The Borlas have been known to crack

And they're just poor quality

The borla header is junk.

V1 is horrendous, it's like it's made out of glass. V2 is better, but it STILL cracks at the flanges and welds, and it's very close to the same price as the JDL, which is arguable one of the highest quality parts until you get into some of the more exotic offerings, like ACE.

Looks like the borla makes a tiny bit more power where the torque dip was, but the JDL makes more up top. I have the JDL UEL and a stage 2+ OFT tune and it's quite a difference from stock. Basically no more torque dip, and definitely extra power everywhere from 3k on up to the redline. I bought my JDL second hand with what I was told was only about 1,000 miles on it, it's the newer style without the flex pipes and it's just a flawless piece with nice clean welds throughout.

This is exactly why there's the little contact link down at the bottom of the page. It should be sold in pairs. Contact the seller to confirm. We don't work there

There is also a gasket between the header and the overpipe. Do people not change that one as well?

I will be
