Do you think they would do the same job again on my car? As well as welding up the cracked factory headers. I'm on the tweed coast and the lexus dealer at southport isnt interested in installing aftermarker headers so this sounds like a much better value option.

There is a cheaper way to this madness. Remove the stock headers, cut off the stock cat/converters below the primary oxygen sensor & weld new 200 cell high flow stainless cats. Power difference of around 5kws less at the wheels as compared to headers ( proven in the U.S ) . To drop the sub frame and do this would take around 3 hours. Sikky headers have released a video showing how to install their headers, it is on the ISF usa forum. The work is easier than people think. High flow stainless cats around $180-200 each. But if you are to do this fit a cat back system to reap the benefits. Otherwise cut the flanges off the stock headers & replace them with 3 inch flanges as compared to 2 inch. There is a really good gain just from doing that. ( 13kws atw )
Hey Mate
Who did the exhaust work for you? I'm looking at header options atm and this sounds like the best value option by far.

my car is well out of warranty, I think they have had a bad experience where the headers didn't fit and they had a hoist tied up for a few days while they tried to fix the problem.
