That's not cool about the merge spike and I'd send them back at that point.

did they fix the primaries so it's a bit easier to get a wrench on the bolts? that was the hardest part on the gen1s with my 12 point arp bolts. to me if they just tweaked the position of the primary slightly, you can get a socket/extension on it. The way I had it, a socket would not fit.

I was actually going to test these out, but changed my mind on them. I already have JetHot long tubes on my car for 5 years now with no issues. I figured why change if its not broken. But good luck with your new headers.

LPP Is going to rectify the merge spike. Anything will be better then the cheap headers that i have on the car now. If I dont do it these headers might not be produced. So alittle sacrifice will hopeully go along way Thanks bolo. I understand the "if it aint broke dont fix it" mentality. If i didnt need them I would of passed them up aswell. The install will start this week.

Merim, they do look pretty easy to get a wrench on there. A socket might be abit of a stretch on some primaries. Ill be updating both threads as the install progresses.
