Apparently so mate but the ecu can always be adjusted, and it's an effort and a half to get the system out aswell that's probably why they said they can't do it

I've also read on other forums, where people have installed extractors and caused heat problems in the engine bay because of them. Just something extra to beware of.

That's mostly due to the short tube headers not having heat shields like the stock manifolds. I like the look of the RIPP long tube headers if, (when), mine crack & need to be replaced.

The cost is a bugger, though:RIPP Long tube headers with cats
