I'm sorry to hear about your issues with this header, but emailing them and calling their product a "POS" wouldn't be the most professional way to conduct yourself.

I'm glad you got the issue resolved.

I dont blame you for being "unprofessional"

If I paid 1400 I would be pretty pissed too.
See if they can cover at least 90% of the cost of a new one if since your only two months out of there "warranty"


Goodluck man. EBAY header or Megan FTW!!!!!!

I was under the impression that the support bracket is optional, I didn't opt to use it on my Toda. I believe some headers don't even have a bracket there. Has anyone had issues with NOT using that bracket?

Sorry to hear about your issues

He probably also uses high quality steel, something very uncommon in Taiwanese or Chinese contractor made JDM products unfortunately. My friend has spent the last 3 weeks fixing a slew of new exhausts that got shipped in for another company and don't fit. He told me when he went to cut them with a sawzall to refit and reweld it cut through like butter and he's having trouble not burning through the metal when he rewelds it.
