Hey there,

I was just wondering if the 16V exhaust headers will fit the 2.3 and 2.0 8V models? Please respond if you know this one.....thanks.

No! completely different patterns. Supersprint does make headers for 8V motors.

The tubes on the 16 valve compatible in pattern, however the flange pattern is different. Supersprint no longer manufactures headers for the 8 valve car. It is theoretically possible to cut the 16 valve flange off and mate up a flange to the 8 valve. Again theoretically...I have had these headers up to an 8 valve head and wondered myself. There is no O2 fitting on the 16 valve header, and the downpipe is different also. I have a spare 16 valve header if your interested.

Oh no....I was just wondering b/c I now have an exhaust turbo manifold on my 16V and no longer need the factory header....so I was thinking about putting it up for sale. If anyone wants it.....make me an offer....later. BTW, the O2 sensor is located in the 16V's downpipe.
