April 27, 201510 yr Hi everyone I've just bought some unequal headers for my non turbo wagon and wondered if anyone local to me would be able to fit them for me. Obviously I will pay for you fitting them and provide a cuppa and a sandwich [emoji4] I'm in South Yorkshire. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
April 27, 201510 yr Oh mint, where did you find them btw? I saw a set on ebay recently, was tempted but figured it would mean decating and a remap too. I'd have thought any exhaust place would do it for you? Or Martin and Dave could fit them?
April 27, 201510 yr Just Martin, dave is no longer ! Post a pic up gem be interesting to see how they look compared to the turbo headers
April 27, 201510 yr Author I was going to ask Martin, wondered why didn't see Dave Monday night. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
April 27, 201510 yr Author I'm already decatted got them off one of the guys who went to the meet Monday night at Sheffield brand new never been fitted £120 Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
April 27, 201510 yr Oh thats a shame thought Martin and dave was a good team. I've only ever dealt with Martin though just spoke to dave why I was there briefly.
April 27, 201510 yr did you have to have it remapped after the decat gem? Did you see a difference in performance?

April 27, 201510 yr Dave left to start up on his own so he didn't leave on good terms, Harry is new tec with Martin, good lad full of banter too. Remapping isn't as essential on n/a cars as the lambda sensor sound alter the trim and there's no turbo spooling issues etc May actually loose some performance due to less back pressure in the system with decat n/a cars
April 27, 201510 yr Author Ah right was Harry there Monday night?? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Got any pics of the new headers then gem?
April 27, 201510 yr Oh not good. Think he'll find it difficult to set up in the same line though in the same city anyway.
April 27, 201510 yr Author They are only in the box still until I find someone to fit them lol Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
April 27, 201510 yr ImageUploadedByTapatalk1430162180.675134.jpg Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk looks ace Gem :) I was looking at getting this, (or something similar) Which look pretty similar to the one you just bought. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Stainless-Steel-Header-Pipes-/181720337723?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&_trksid=p2047675.l2557&nma=true&si=L1frr9fOVfulymJbsbD64pHR9UY%253D&orig_cvip=true&rt=nc It would replace both my cats and I'd have no idea where the lamda sensor thing would plug in lol.
May 1, 201510 yr Are you going to do a before and after video gem? I'm intrested to hear the difference and sure it will make the rest get it done. [emoji106]
May 10, 201510 yr Hey Gem. Interested in what headers you got? Are they a cross-fit from the Turbo models or do you have to go aftermarket? Seriously wanting to give it a go, but worried about fitment, especially on the block end.
May 11, 201510 yr Author Hiya, the unequal headers I bought were originally from an exhaust company can't remember name but will look on box.. What year is your Hawkeye sport? As the guy I bought these off had a 2007 Hawkeye sport and they don't fit straight on as he found out it would need a longer pipe welding on hence why he sold the headers to me.

May 11, 201510 yr Ah okay. Yeah, it's the 05-07 model Hawk. See, I have friends who are good with fab and welding, so extending/modding the exhaust end isn't the end of the world. It's the head fitment that I was most worried about. If all the Newage 2.0's have the same exhaust ports, it should be easy enough to adapt it across. Just grab some headers off a breaking car. But yes, finding out the brand of the headers you know fit would be very helpful :)
May 11, 201510 yr Author Yeah I'll post the name of company on here later. I don't think much welding was needed to fit a Hawkeye 05-07 plate but you deffo can't fit them straight out of box. Actually if for whatever reason they don't fit mine or need extra welding then I will be selling them myself lol. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
May 11, 201510 yr I've a 56 hawk would this fit mine also then? If so wouldn't mind knowing company name also cheers Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
