GT Spec V1 had leakage issues due to
the two bolt flange design like the stock model.
Once they changed to the 3 bolt design (Version II) , the leakage issue dissapeared...just to clear up any questions...
The GT Spec V2 also comes with an up-pipe...suppose to increase the velocity of the exhaust as it exits the header...
Roy...you finally came out of the closet eh? heh heh...verrrry niceeee. About time you shared your JDMness with us...

Roy: I'm jealous... that's freakin' beautiful.
I picked up a used Cusco (heat wrapped and etc.) sitting in my garage... I'm debating whether to do a turbo mod... but I think I'll just slap it on.
Jon: Getting a MaximWork header?

if your going with the 35r then you will want equal length. there's no point in going with that kit and still retaining an unequal length header.
