I'll see if I have one already, but pistons are in the block as of now. Pretty sure there is a set of 11:1 cosworths in the classified section, he might be able to take pics for you

I would highly rec dumping the megan test pipes. Im not going to say ART pipes though lol. I dont believe they have had great success with aftermarket headers. I say maybe find some 2.5" test pipes.

You know of a specific brand to recommend?
Rtune header primaries are stepped, so my thinking is that it wouldn't hurt to have the entire exh get gradually bigger at each component as well

I want Headgames to port and polish my Cosworth. They're only about 30 mins from me. If you're in the area, you're more than welcome to come check out my car.

Have you dropped off your heads yet? How do you like them? Heard great things.
