Laydown some thoughts.  im interested in buying these.  i know that greddy's headers crack, from what ive read.  are these reliable?  is there any other company that makes headers for the 240?  what and where did you buy them? what was final price?  thx!

Hotshot headers have a fitment problem.  They say themselves that there is a slight difference between the 95 and 96 that causes fitment problems for their headers.  But if you can deal with that, they hotshot (last i heard) puts down more power than the greddy.  I don't know anything about either one cracking though.

On my 96, they where a bitch to install.  A two man project.  Trust me.....I had a problem with the steering knuckle hitting the bend in the header when making right handed turns.  The power gain is awsome, it feels so smooth.

i thought theres was a fitment problem with the 97-98 not between the 95-96.  maybe i missread.

what didi you do about the problem?  when did you buy the headers?  do you know if that is the latest design?  how much did you pay?

i know someone with the newest hotshot headers on his 95 or 96 and he had no fitment problems. i think they fixed that.

i have the hotshot (new design) on my 95
it was a bitch to install, but fitment is nice, once you get it in.. the steering linkage is just really tight

i cannot really post any hp increase because i installed it while waiting for an exhaust

oh well

looks pretty
