    a few people that i talked to said there was no bung for the o2 sensor, and that they had to have one welded on.

    We've had a couple of those too at NPOC, but what about other problems?

    I have one in my 96 g20 and it has absolutely no problems. The one I have has 2 bungs for a universal fit and yes the chrome shine is lower quality than others but the header is great otherwise.

    No modifications to make this fit

    I ahve had mine on for less than a week, but I like it. Nice and golden/bronze colored now. The install was kind of a bit*h and make sure there are no broken exhaust studs left for you by the previous owner before you start your install. I didn't and now I have an ehaust leak. Oh well.

    Only problem i had with an ssautochrome header was torquing the downpipe down to the manifold... Was a pain in the rear.

    Thumbs up NOPE

    I've had mine for quite some time... No problems here really...

    It looses its shine after the heat gets to it... but that's nothing...
    I have a 99' P11, the header had the bung for my front 02 sensor cuz' my rear one is located after the cat anyway...
    Best Bang for the buck that's for sure... plus the Primary pipes are bigger in diameter than the HS ones I've seen around...

    As for installing it, the EGR is what makes things hard... but one you remove your radiator, you have plenty of room to play with!

    NYCGs to the end!

    No idea yet. Our GB arrives ere on Monday and I'll most likely get around to fitting mine the following weekend. I'll let you know then...
