Installing CHEAPEST headers on my c63 w204 (tips and tricks, and review)
UPDATE after 1 year:
Daily drive my car and no complaints other than the gaskets they provide are cheap quality. Use the OEM gaskets instead. No cracks, no weird vibrations. Sound and fit great.
Racing my friends identical c63 (same tune, same mods, his long tube headers are more expensive version), mine pulls slightly more. (May be unrelated to header design differences, but they aren’t hindering power).
Took a gamble and ordered some headers from Alibaba. Turned out to be a lot nicer than I was expecting.
Total shipped was about $720. Headers cost about $420 plus shipping and fees.
Took about two weeks to get them in.
Few tips and tricks to installing them yourself, plus some sound clips.
Filmed with iPhone 12 plus.
Link to headers I purchased.

Hey have a question finally got around to installing them but I’m having exhaust leaks at the clamps to the little mid pipes that go over the metal brace and into the resonator? Did your clamps work well or do they leak? Need some help of you don’t mind! Mine vibrates and has leaks at the clamp points and where it connects to the resonator thanks!
Mine worked well. However, I believe I welded most of the pipes and just clamped to the headers. I’ll have to check next time I’m under it. No issues with my clamps though
Question can I run without a tune with the headers?
@@aldinbabba418 yes. You will probably have a check engine light for missing cats however.
@@cody1413 thanks for the reply! Was curious I’m going to go with eurocharged but have to ride without a tune for a bit was worried it might be bad for the car that’s why I asked.
Question for you, how is the smell? Is there any type of bad exhaust smell?
Love the fact that you didn't lower too much.
You think you have space for a procharger or Turbo under that hood as well
The thing about saving money with cheap headers is you will have the huge pain in the ass of installing them twice once the welds break. If you can deal with that, go on. Best case they‘ll never break and you have some cheap headers.
Got a link ?
Can you share link where to buy these Headers and long tube
Who tuned the car ?
Can you tell me how to pull the steering shaft back out after pushed in?
I understood what you were helping us with. Thanks
Partout?
Am I okay to use OEM gaskets even if it’s different shape as the gasket that came with the headers
Should be, yes.
How many horses?
Have same set up just got the cam today hoping similar results nice build 👍🏼
Nice exhaust cutout. Very subtle but nice.
let me see if i understood... your setup remove: original header / 1st and 2nd cats but maintained the ressonator and mufflers, am i right? my question is because i get the same JDLD kit for my c63... and my exhaust system is completelly OEM. it is my dailly car so i am afraid about the noise when i am not accellerating... is it loud in normal situatiion?i know if i accel the noise will appear but my question is in normal situation( driving in city for ex.)
Headers, then x-pipe, then factory mufflers. Everything else is removed. Car is very quiet unless over 1/2 throttle. Can barely hear the exhaust when driving down the highway.
@@cody1413 thank you for the feedback! but are you maintained the ressonators(before the mufflers)? or remove them as well?
@@madeingermany_br3104 removed
Did you have to change your springs
It’s recommended you do. Did dual beehive springs
Can you remove ac line if don’t have ac machine? Or will stuff pour out
Since you installed it more then 1 year ago can you tell me your opinion about them and is there any damages or effects?
No complaints other than the exhaust gaskets they provide don’t last long. I would use new OEM gaskets. Fitment is great. Compared sounds to my friends car who has a different brand long tube headers and mine seems a bit louder and slight different tone.
sounds amazing
I have the same wheels on my truck but with 325/50/15 drag radials in rear.Try them itll look sick.Looking good my friend.
What transmission did you use and do you remember driveshaft measurements
T56 6 speed and no, I don’t remember, sorry.
@@cody1413 Thank you
What exhaust
Long tube headers into x-pipe into dual borla xr1 quad cores (I think that’s what they’re called)
gen 3 or gen 4 6.0?
Gen 3
Cant wait to get mine fitted, already have X pipe and secondary delete.
Is that the BTR stage 1 truck cam??
No, the LS2 stage 1 I believe.
No need to mess with the steering rack itself?
Not on a c63. May have to on the e63 but I’m not sure.
How are they holding up 9 months later? Are you running an X pipe (in place of secondary cats) and straight pipe (in place of resonator) and stock mufflers in that cold start clip?
Holding great minus the cheap exhaust gaskets they provide. Go with OEM gaskets. Yes and yes. Headers to x-pipe to stock mufflers. You won’t find a better sounding car imo.
@@cody1413 Thoughts on double x pipe with stock mufflers?
@@Bridscape double x-pipe? No real need for it. Single is all you need.
@@cody1413 I’m not familiar with the exhaust gaskets, do you have the part numbers? Or which ones I’ll specifically need/how many?
@@Bridscape just the factory exhaust manifold gaskets at the engine. One per side so two total. Long rectangle gasket with 4 oval holes
Just made a 2AM purchase on these! Ended up being $576 delivered… time to play the waiting game! Do you still have the car?
Yup! Still have it. I will say to use oem gaskets and not the aluminum crush style ones the headers come with.
F-China... from dad!!
Update?
@@OGYELLOWjust got delivered a few days ago. Waiting on the lift to be available for the install!
Update 😢😊
Should I go VRP or Becker is perfect for money
Becker have different outlet flanges from what I’ve seen. They don’t directly bolt up like these cheap Chinese headers or VRP.
Cam sounds nice
Link plz
This sounds insane. what exactly is the setup?
4 door ls g35 is crazy
beastly video i love it
have you got the car tuned since you installed the headers? and if so is the performance aspect of these headers there?
Invaluable info showing the combo of extensions and sockets. Thank you
I don't even want it
I’m assuming they’d fit on a W211 E63 too correct?
I believe they do but the mid pipes are different.
@@cody1413 yea most headers unfortunately favor 204 chassis and require other cars to get custom midpipe
Have you experienced any rubbing / rattling since these were installed ? I got the same one and every time i go to turn left they’re vibrating on the cross member or something idk
Nope, no noises for me. You might check your engine mounts, if they’re old and collapsed they may let the exhaust rub.
I’m considering buying these headers because they sound very good and compared to the mainstream headers, very cheap. Are they worth getting? Any downsides to cheap headers?
@@danielamg1363 I’m happy with them. Have close to 10k miles on them and no complaints yet.
@@cody1413 wow 10k miles! I’m really just concerned about the quality and scared about metal bursting and damaging engine/ anything else. How’s the build quality? I’m seriously considering it because of the sound and price
@@danielamg1363 there’s nothing the headers could do to damage the engine. You will need a tune after installing the headers. If you’re not tuned already, you’ll gain probably 50-80hp if not more with headers. Build quality Is quite good. Only complaint is the bolt holes are a bit larger, but still fits just fine.
Love the AMG! I'm located in OK and have one as well!
Thank you! What part of Oklahoma?
@@cody1413 located in OKC. If you're ever down here I'd love to hear the AMG in person haha
@@Observate000 for sure! I’m in tulsa, so not too far away.
how long did it take you?
Roughly 3-4 hours I’d say. Wasn’t too bad.
@@cody1413thats good
Who the fuck wants a slow ass shit box of a audi German scrap
Yeah they still holding up?
Yup! Daily drive it and haven’t had any issues.
Live here in Oklahoma too got an 05 sedan what's something like this roughly cost
any updates on it?
So far they’re working great. Not a single complaint.
Raptor totalled.
