Yes, it works with any Headerback exhaust that connect to the OEM Header.

I dunno how you can say that with any certainty Just becaus the flanges line up doesn't mean the headers route don't interfere with plumbing the turbo.

There's no plumbing on the turbo that runs through that area. I'll root around the install pics to show it.

Basically, though, our turbo kit main section - the UEL headers to turbo to downpipe - are a package that replaces the OEM exhaust manifold from exhaust ports to the header-back pipes. While the interior diameter of the downpipe is larger than the stock pipe, the exterior flange area was designed to match up to the stock flange of the rest of the exhaust.

So any aftermarket exhaust, including ours, should fit to the turbo kit as long as it was designed to bolt up to the standard header. However, if a manufacturer has created a complete exhaust system with header, and hasn't maintained stock flange locations, then it's definitely possible it wouldn't bolt up to our system - or a stock header, or anything else but that manufacturers system.

LOL, you my man need to do your homework. It has already been CONFIRMED by AVO that their header will connect to the exact location the OEM header connected.

Edit: AVO beat me to it

This will better illustrate both how it works, and how amazingly engineered and compact we made this system.

Don't get no emissions tests?


double negative means you DO have emissions tests

Will you provide a detailed instructions sheet of how to install your kit onto the car step by step with let's say some pictures also ?
