DIY Headers - horndog - 03-08-2008
Well I got most of the headers done, I got creative and had an idea of running a dremel with a thin cutting disc around the inside of my stock headers breaking the welds on the collats on the ends of the headers.
I was then able to tap the collats off and slide them on my turbo headers including the 2 bolt flanges. I spot welded them in place and bolted up to the bike and it fits nice.
Just waiting on a T28 flange to show up so I can weld that on.
I will get Tony to tig the collats up for me. I migged the mandrel bends up and they should be ok.
Once Its a bit more presentable I will post up some better pics.

Headers are done bar the tigging of the spigots off the stock headers and still gotta get a wastegate. The turbo hugs in real nice and close to the motor with good height above sump. Not as tidy a finish as I would have liked but it will do the trick.
