Default Help wanted in North West to fit new header

As some of you may know I have been looking for a new header to compliment my Greddy TI-C dual exit exhaust, Garage R decat & K&N Gen II CAI.

I am now in the process of importing a header from the US and it is scheduled to arrive this Friday via FedEx.

I have not got the exhaust or decat fitted at this point in time as have been waiting for the header to arrive 1st.

Is any one local (North West/North Wales) willing to help me fit the header? I have a decent size garage if this helps but do not have a pit or I can drive to some one.

Obviously beer or beer tokens are offered in exchange for help

Cheers

Martin

As I understand, they are bloody fiddly to get on.

Not much help, I know!

I could help you, fitted my tracysports manifold myself.

I live in the west lake district, so might be a bit too far for you?.

Getting a PLM header eh , there is a dyno spot an hour away from me too .

Yes, PLM header, they had a cracking offer on over Christmas - far too good to miss and with 26 pages plus on here of sales & reviews - all positive, it appears there is nothing but gains to be made!!

Where abouts are you? I am reluctant to go to a standard exhaust fitter to get a new header fitted although they probably do this all the time.

Do you do exhuasts too?

Sorry for any confusion - ideally I would like my exhaust & decat fitted when the header/manifold is done although not critical that they are all fitted on the same day - but would be nice

We fitted pauls PLM on a pair of axle stands, it was fiddly but with a lot of wiggling and small cuts, it goes on!

I took mine to TGM!
