anyone have headers on their 30v b5?
 
im thinking of buying some for my car if they seem worth it... anyone have any? where can i get them? are they worth it? any input would be appreciated

There were hardly any made and as with all other breathing mods for the 30v, you're really not going to gain much - certainly not enough to justify the purchase price and the fact that you have to pull the engine to install them.

well forget all that then!

agree with $/power return, but was thinking....
 
that i have a supercharger now (G2)... there MIGHT be more gain/reason to attempt this in the future. SUPERSPRINT is the only brand i have ever seen for the 30v, and they were around $1000 a pair last time i looked. B5's are getting over 10 years old now, so i am going to guess production of these parts is done (?) and price has no reason to go down????

my $.02

well if more of us guys start getting more interested in them they might get alittle cheaper im planning on a supercharger also so we might be on to sumthing....

You're better off cultivating a friendship with a good shop that can custom-bend/weld stainless-steel (it's not the same as welding regular steel, trust me), and having a set made for your application. The after-market for B5 parts is dwindlling, with each passing day/week/month/year. Less & less incentive for manufacturers to develop/make parts for a body/chassis/engine combo that isn't around any more. Less & less money to be made off of people willing to mod a barely moddable engine, especially.
