Talking headers

How tough of a job would it be for me to install my own headers on my 2007 C6 A6? Any links or info would be appreciated. Also best headers for my money and ceramic coated. THANKS!

It can be done, you will need it in the air high enough as well as getting at the top. With our special running you can get Headers/CAI/ & a complete dyno tune for a $500 discount.

Personally, I wouldn't want to do it. I thought putting on new spark plug wires in those tight quarters around the engine on my C5Z tough enough....

Pay someone who knows what they are doing to do it and spend the day doing something else that is fun. Of course, maybe you are a masochist and that WOULD be fun for you....

I would let the pros do it, it's not a job for the faint of heart!

The difficulty of header intallation all depends upon the brand of header that you use. Some are very tricky. others just slide in. When I say these things, remember that I judge this by being on a lift 6 feet in the air. The difficulty level increases the closer to the ground that you are.
