Default Question on my Mac Headers.

I just recieved my Mac Headers w/ ORP for my 2001 TA. I was just examining them, and I dont' tknow the technical term for what these are. But that small tube thing that sticks out of the top of each header. They both stick out the top of the first head. But on my driver side stock header, the tube thing that the brass tube comes out of is on the 2nd head. Am I still going to be able to connect those? I hope I didnt' get a defective pair. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Sad]" src="gr_sad.gif" />

Each header only has one tube sticking up on top?

Ya, each header has 1 connecting tube. Theres no EGR as you know for 01's. It just doesn't look like on the driver side that the connecting tube will align with the new driver side header. The tube is on the front head of the mac header, and on the stock header its on the second head. But maybe they still line up, I don't know. *shrug I havn't tried to install them yet or anything, its just somethign I noticed.

Well.. when I install the headers on my car, I use one air tube from a 98 and one of the stockers tweaked a little. The tubing for those is pretty good (stainless) and can be "re-bent". Just take your time to insure you don't break it. May even want to apply a little heat.
