AWE Headers

AWE Headers
This is my 3rd Porsche turbo. I've done simple bolt on to full bolt on. I've had many headers in the past some were really good and some just ok. Ranging from Evoms(beautifully made) ,Agency power( great quality) , Fabspeed etc etc Recently I had a very bad exhaust leak on my car. I had to reweld them but after a couple of weeks it leaked again. Got tired of it and just left it alone.
Last Sunday I went to super car Sunday with a bunch of friends including Randy (quick911). He noticed my exhaust leak. Within a couple hours after I got home he called me and offered me his AWE headers for free that he had a little dent on which was not noticeable to me until he pointed it out. As soon as I installed them on my car my first reaction was wow these things fit better than stock headers!! I then took it for a drive and was even more impressed with the linear power it was making. It feels like it keeps on pulling all the way to the top and never stop. (endless power) I have never been interested in the way the these headers looked until I installed them and noticed the workmanship , power, matarial and the design that went into them. These have to be one of the best headers I have ever installed in any of my cars. I Thank my good friend quick911 for his donation two tubs up for AWE.
(no association with AWE ,never even talked to them but I thought I had to share my great experience.

Just a note regarding the fitment.
A byproduct of welding the transition to the flange is some warpage of the flange. So what we do is after the transition is welded is put the flange in the CNC machine and do what is called decking or a fly-cut. This is done on the side that faces the head. What this does is re-flatten the surface so it is no longer warped. This ensures that there are no leaks at the gasket and the header does not stress the studs when it is tightened.
So next time you see a new set of headers, look at the side of the flange that faces the head. If you see machining marks, you know whomever made them took the time to do it right.
If you don't, place the headers on a completely flat surface and see if it wobbles...

it's the least you can do for those 10 year old Laotian child laborers you lock inside the shop
