Default fwd headers

I have a v6 30v fwd egine, I know a guy selling headers for 100 dollars, I am assuming they are aftermarket because he has a ton of work done plus he filed me in and said they were. My question is will those headers fit on my fwd if he is running quattro?

if you have a 30v v6 then yes, you have the same engine, having quattro does not change that part at all.

doesnt look like an easy job anyway removing headers. I presume you'll have to pull out the engine for that.
Unless you can get them from the bottom but, i've never noticed.

Why bother? I doubt you will get enough hp to justify the install. Unless your supercharged then go for it should make a decent difference.

yea i dont see the reason to spend all the time swapping them out unless you have some other power adders on the car like nitrous or a blower.
