So there is nothing actually wrong with the kit itself in terms of idea, layout(for the most part), and components it's the piss poor QC and shipping. I would imagine if he is having a shop install the car they should inspect the components as they install them and fix any issues as they go. That's what they are getting paid for. I would reccomend using the stock header gaskets and having some exhaust rated rtv as almost every FA20club kit I've seen has leaked from there. Also the downpipe will most likely have to be reworked if you are connecting it to anything larger than stock overpipe as the flange is at a odd angle which causes a exhaust leak as well.
