Raceland header, worth it?
#21
I just put one on my 1.6 and I am happy with it so far, even though I only drove it 5ish minutes. I also wrapped it and sealed the wrap. It has a nice throaty-er sound then the stock header. My stock header was cracked so its nice to not have to listen to the hiss. Also I am NA, so not much help here.

Has anyone installed the NA 1.8L raceland header? How is the fit (especially of the EGR)?

There used to be a NA 1.8L on their site. I e-mailed them about it at the end of March, and they said they took the listing off due to being out of stock. They estimated that they would have them in stock again by June.

I've seen someone install these on there car and the build quality didnt actually look that bad, nor did the design.Although the quality is not as nice as a RB header. It would seem reasonable that there is power to be gained.

I bought one because while i was putting my car back together i noticed the studs were broken on the oem one. I fit ok with no leaks. the only fitment problem was the part that bolted up to the exhaust was a little off. My header back was custom so it may have been the problem. Actually getting in there required taking apart the steering linkage/joint, other than that it was a breeze.
