I also always shift manually and is in 5th at just over 40kph and reving at 1200rpm.
    Just make sure you order the AWD one. the difference is the AWD rear pipe forms a circle shape as it curls around whereas the FWD version is more like a rounded corners square shape.
    So the AWD headers are a better shape, from a flow point of view?
    Will the AWD headers fit the FWD platform?

    Also, ran up and down the freeway the other day - used 15/100 running from Murray Bridge to Adelaide, and the return trip reduced the average back to 13.4/100 - this is from the trip computer, running LPG.
