1320 Performance Headers Review

[tskaohu]

yeah thats exactly how they looked. when i put them in and tightened them the little metal plates moved and condensation leaked. almost like the gasket was too thin.

You could try to gaskets or the oem gaskets, or start checking flanges.

That's what I'm thinking, because I started with the shitty gaskets that 1320 gave me and I was just putting on the Grimm speed ones to get a better seal. The shitty ones from 1320 did not have any leak in the beginning and the grim speed ones do. It's making me think that it was the grimspeed gasket.

I haven't heard anything bad about GS gaskets but who knows. 1320 didn't even give me gaskets when I bought mine lol. If the ones from 1320 didn't leak then just put those on. Easy fix.

The GS gaskets have essentially no crush. You'll never get them to seal if the surface isn't machined perfectly flat with absolutely zero misalignment in the flanges, so good luck

I would have left the 1320 gaskets but they disintegrated lmao.

UPDATE: I took my car to my buddies exhaust shop, apparently that gasket leak had righted itself because when he listened for a leak there was none. Gotta love self fixing problems 👌🏼

Or maybe you made something wrong without knowing? Post video if you can, you have other aftermarket component on your car beside header?

[tskaohu]

Yes with the GS gaskets on the header to engine block connection and on the header to overpipe connection

I have a full exhaust and a Injen short ram intake plus an OFT for UEL Headers and E85

Just for future reference. If you have the jacked up, have a friend start the car and place you hand under where the suspected leak is. You will feel air coming out of the exhaust.

Yeah we noticed it because there was condensation dripping from the connection.
