I think it will depend on what type of headers you are running. From my experience, one of my primaries was actually touching the (PA Racing) k-member. What did Jason at PA Racing suggest? He suggested I have the shop working on it pull it back down and send it to him so that he could work on it himself. Thus costing me more labor costs to have the part removed then reinstalled back on to the car...yea, no thanks. I would suggest going with another brand.

But at least he was willing to work with you with the problem. Some companies would just say tough **** deal with it, or blame it on another part that isnt theirs...

Work with me, but at my expense? Granted, he did "try to work with me" but he cost not only me time and money due to a defective part, but also the shop doing the work on my car as well as other cars. What am I supposed to do...beg the shop not to charge me because of a poorly designed part? Yea, ok.

to the OP, sorry for the thread hijack.

^^^Can't make a part that fits EVERY other brand of part...i.e. headers and k member. Mine fit good, had a little issue with the stock front lower control arms but they gave me a set of their aftermarket arms for basically cost so it worked out well. Another local guy has one and he loves his and he is running a D1SC kit.
