Questions i have are has anyone else experiences so much rust this soon and two does the revworks uel have new studs or should i buy a new one from subaru. My revworks doesnt come in for atleast a month though
The new header won't have studs, it will have holes in it so you can use nuts and bolts. None of the aftermarket stuff has studs. And some of the header and overpipe studs, no matter how much penetrating oil you use will break, I've done about 30 exhaust installs and had about 7-8 of them break or strip studs.
