Yes, header holes. Yes the bracket makes it sit higher up.

The bracket isn’t finished yet. Needs to be welded and painted.

It fits around the sump. I haven’t seen it in person yet. Be a few more days until done. A few more mods coming as well that need to be fitted. Hope no shipping delays from the states due to covid.

Nice-looks like he has it sitting further back (by clearancing for the muffler). I am installing headers on mine and hoping they clear and the tray doesnt have to be modified (they are not as low as Vektors).

Custom made by my race mechanic. That pic isn’t finished. It needs to be welded together.

Hopefully he will take pics when its done and i will post. Most likely won’t get the car back until Monday. Longer if the other bits arrive.

Just a couple of pics to see progress.

This poor McLaren was scratching his head when he had it pinned down the straight and I just pulled out and over took him like he was braking.

@Tyler@APR Here are a couple of pics.

Correct. I also had Active Cruise Control that i never used once.

I don’t miss either. I prefer having the extra radiator now for tracking and Aero that works.

Besides the killer looks.

I like your mechanic's style with the heat shielding!

Can you post some pics from the bottom showing the headers poking through?

I haven’t picked the car up yet. From what i have seen, they don’t really poke through as such. More like they would touch. Maybe rub.

My Race Mechanic is so OCD. It has to be bullet proof. It has to withstand smashing into a ripple strip and not damaging the sump. Thats why so much bracing.

I hate to thinking how much this is going to cost. 😂

Custom brackets




Custom 2


He really put some effort into this. Guarantees it won’t rip off at 300km/hr 🤣

Front is OEM GT3, rear is 4 way adjustable by Tarret.

My only concern with this picture is if you ever snag that rear lower diffuser and it pulls hard enough, that oil return is next. Can be potentially catastrophic?
