I've personally seen cracks on virtually every aftermarket header (except one) including, perrin, tomei, ap, etc. Not sure why anyone would go this route, and eventually have to replace or repair, when there is really only one option when going EL.

Killer B FTW. One of the most precise and well made parts you will ever buy for your car, only shame is nobody will ever see it.

No not yet, have many things i have to purchase before installing them and i still have to finish putting the motor back together it's about 75% back together. I still need a new internal wastegate, fuel pressure regulator, clutch fork, and possibly some other parts i'm still not sure about yet. Can't finish it sooner due to still paying off the and subies ain't cheap.

Update, sorry it's taken so long finally paid off my car and started putting the car back together. Upon dropping the engine with the 1320 ELH it looked beautiful, but we have come across a fitment issue. I have a mishimoto radiator and still using the stock fans/fan shroud and first i tried trimming a piece of the shroud it help but then it seemed the fan itself was gonna hit the header.
I will be picking up some mishimoto slim fans and hopefully it'll work then. It seems I'm not allowed to post pictures here.

Update: we ended up repositioning the oem fan giving us less than a of an inch of space. Finally turned on the and it sounds great! Still kept some rumble with a catless invidia n1 turboback
