I ve got the header in
but the HP Header only can fit the 2 bolts from the downpipe and cant fit in to the support bracket
there are only 3 screw holes to begin with
well i tightend eveything as much as it goes on the top of the head cept im misson one bolt cuz i dropped it down so i have 1 bolt and 3 screws, then on the down pipe i can screw in the 2 screws with springs but they are loose...
the original gasket wont fit on the HP Header cuz its bigger?
do i need the RSX gasket?
or should i jus stick that original gasket in there some how?
n e 1 else have these probz?
