SunDevil C5 Posted May 27, 2007 Share Posted May 27, 2007 the drivers side egr tube on my kooks headers has a slight crack at the base of the weld to the header tube. I'm trying to install them today and no shop is open to make the repair. If anyone is available I can make the trip to you to get this fixed today. I greatly appreciate any help I can get. Thanks, Brian Call me since I'll be in the garage more than likely 219-973-9323. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ELESWUN Posted May 29, 2007 Share Posted May 29, 2007 Yes, I believe all Kooks headers are Miged anyways. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
