CSL headers install worth it?

mousitch · 04-21-2010, 12:55 PM

How hard is it? Two new bungs cut in. Where would the screw in sensor go? Same as the Euro Header conversion? Wondering if I should pick these up for $800 and if it is worth the work involved to do it opposed to just finding a pair of used AA's(IF i find a used set). Guess I'm just inpatient. Going to have a cel delete tune. If the power is the same I'd just as well as go with AA's because of the cutting/welding. Plus they need to come off/go on the same day. No garage

If I was in the market, I'd pick them up.

Plan on doing this later with O2s relocated to 2nd set of cats.

Idk I'm planning to install some headers and don't know which ones. In my mind I was thinking CSL Headers or Agency Power Stainless steel headers... Has anyone actually diven the "CSL" one and compare with the "HPF Agency powered."

Not to threadjack but are "Euro" and "CSL" headers the same?

CSL headers and Euro headers fit the same way and yield the same power.....just make sure you get them coated as i did

I eventually went with a set of AA's and loved them. Sold to another member after I totaled the vert. +1 on the coating. They do get hot under the hood. Hot enough to vapor out wiper fluid.

Absolutely worth it. I'm running Euro OEM M3 headers on my Z4M and I am very happy with the modification.

If you can wait I will have a set of AA coated for sale in the next couple month they were barley used before the coating and just run twice after the coating.
