Default Stock AU XR6 Headers

Hi Guys,

Bit of a weird request. I've finally got time to do some work on the car and was about to put my 4499's in, when I saw my stock headers.

They are two peice and look considerably larger than the pacemakers. Does anyone have a photo or something that I can see to determine wether or not mine are a one off or actually standard?

Ta!

If it's a huge ugly cast iron lump of metal, which looks like a log with a pile of branches conected to the exhaust ports, and the secondary pipe basically just heading downwards and straight into the cat, then it's the standard manifold, and basically a worthless pile of junk.

If it's a thin walled steel tubular contraption with longish (250-300mm or so) primary pipes, which then go into a nice smooth junction with 2 larger pipes being anywhere from 300mm to maybe a meter, then they are possibly nicely made extractors.
