Hey everyone, I bought a 997.1 Turbo back in January after getting a PPI done. They told me it had headers (no clue what brand), but that everything was ok.

Now after less than 2000 miles I find out that both headers have cracks/holes in them. I noticed that my exhaust was sounding crappy, so I figured I had a leak somewhere.

I took it in because I have a new exhaust on the way and wanted to make sure to get new gaskets for anything else that might be leaking.

I'm hoping that someone here has a set laying around!

Thanks in advance!

Below are pics of the cracks/holes

 

Sorry to hear about that. I may be able to help with something aftermarket (with guarantee) that has been proven or I can get yo a set of factory units. There are several headers out there that aside from perhaps no gains are prone to failure unfortunately.

 

Please share which name it is so we that might be looking for headers know if this is a repeated issue with that brand or one off.

 

Hey,

I'm in Dallas and have oem headers/ exhaust with 12k miles on it.

Please email me: h4nh_1232@yahoo.com

 

I would stick with factory. My Fabspeed Evoms headers cracked twice both right and left sides with less than 25k miles which is pathetic for how much they charge for them. Pick a more trusted suppliers like Sam by design, esmotor, champion and Cargraphic
Remember lifetime warranty is useless when it means your car is stuck on a hoist for over a week waiting for parts to be repaired by the manufacture.
