you now know what your headers are going to look like after a month under the car, regardless of weather. Brace yourself for the never-ending exhaust leak... Flowtechs in general whether used or new, are not exactly known for good quality.

update..

got the new set of flowtechs in the other day from ups...they look WAY better than what they first sent me..nothing is bent or dinged..and the coating looks way better...there is minimal rust..but i figure i'll just sand em down and repaint them with high temp anyways....what a headache but i finally got them

If or when you have to drop the trans you'll be glad you have Flowtechs and not MAC's

im just glad justin was more than willing to help over at lmr and corrected the problem and spoke with me personally..i know i was mad with them..but stuff happens...as long as guys like justin go the extra mile in the customer service dept to help their customers i wouldnt mind going through them again..except i'll order it over the phone
