Any members know of anyone who can supply a 4 branch header for RHD 924NA or else if anyone has attempted to make one up . Any info please thanks. Im trying to replicate a D Prod version of the 924 with engine mods so the header is a must.

I have made one, its a pain but not impossible. I made the No. 4 pipe in a socket into the collector. The problem is that they are nowhere near equal length.

Daniel,

Have a look at the exhaust in your new car. From memory the header on that is an improvement on the standard one.

Yup I couldn't believe it when they came up with a "Buy It Now" price crazy low...

Email on it's way, but they are the same pics here - I don't have hi-res versions of em unfortunately.

Cheers,

Hi Daniel,

Honestly can't say either way without crawling under and measuring. They went on the car over a year ago.

Next chance I get I'll take a closer look.

Cheers,

These pics are fantastic guys, it seems that the only problem would be trying to find a way to get the steering column between no 2 and no 3 exhaust pipe. emoore924 if its not much trouble could you post some pics of the d prod exhaust, Iv been sent a pic of a Bursch exhaust (not very clear though)it seems as if the 2 & 3 pipes are a bit well spaced too. i will take a closer look though at all the pics and show them to a guy who told me he might be able to work something out.

thanks all of you.
