    So I have an (originally) N/A L36 in my 2000 bonneville that is now topswapped running a pnp gen 3 blower, and e85 on a 3.8 pulley, looking to get some more mods done so I can get down to a smaller pulley... but... almost no one makes headers for the bonnie and those that do are quite expensive new, and hard to find used So basically just curious if anyone here had experience with headers in a bonnie and maybe how much modification would have to be done for GP headers to fit in my bonneville? Thanks!! Hope GP headers will fit with a little bit of modifications.. haha

    You have bigger injectors for that e85 right?


    And to my knowledge the cheap ebay SD headers fit the bonneville but some modidication is needed if I remember right. I thought someone did it recently but I forget who.

    with a turbo on the bonne you'll make much more power than the wrx for way cheaper.

    it'll still be slower, though.

    The headers fit. The only modification you have to make is connecting to the exhaust under the car. Because there isn't the same catback flange. That's all.

    How do you get the catback flange to fit? cut and weld a different one on?
