Thread: SD Headers Plugged. What to do?

I had some surging issues under boost. Cruising and light throttle are fine. I put a scan tool on the car to see if I could find anything. I discovered that the more throttle I gave it, the more fuel was being subtracted, up to -22%. It was time for the LIM gaskets so I took all of that apart, and remembered that the exhaust manifold gaskets didn't match up with the headers, so I took those off. Below is what I found. Is there a way to fix that, or should I get a better set of headers? Thanks guys.

I am pretty sure you can replace JUST the flex.

get a new flex section welded in there.

The crappy single walled flex thats on the SD from the factory can cause problems.

weld in a new double walled flex pipe the stock single walled one is known to fail.

^ How true! How is ZZP's flex? Any good, or is there a better one?

Zzp flex's are what everyone recommends...to bad they are out of stock last time i checked.

Thanks all! I'll look into the repair.
