Borla Header Replacement!!
Although I installed the P&L Motorsports EL Header, I wanted to write a few words about the Borla Warranty Process. Overall it was quite painless. My instinct to go with Borla with as my initial header served me well, they are a company who stands behind their product.
I called the number on the website and was told to send an email to them with
> A description of the issue and pictures
> My address and phone number
> The invoice for the header.
I was told one would be sent my way. The following may not be true for your warranty experience, but I was told that I can keep my original manifold and I wouldn't have to ship it back. So far so good.
The replacement did take awhile to come, these are still on backorder so they were still making them. In my particular situation, this didn't bother me. I guess it would be prudent to be patient if you need to warranty yours.
The replacement itself clearly was a newer revision. The welds were much better, and care was taken to clean up the slag from the welding process. Things seem to be re-enforced better as well. One flange was perfectly flat, the other had a hairs width of gap. I think a gasket could take care of that. The merge collector looked largely the same to me.
I took these with an iPhone 4S. No editing done. I think they came out quite well. Enjoy
