This guy just asked if a focus header will fit. I never asked that. I asked specifics which can be hard to find. If he asked specifically what needs to be done, I would have answered, and I still will if he asks me. Atleast I change my oil filter more than once every five years.

Oh im sorry i didn't specify which headers but I was asking about anyone as far as bolting up. Grant it I wasnt thinking about space at that very moment. I kinda figured i might have to relocate something. However why didn't you ask to which setup I was asking about? Iv'e read countless pages and um... well noting was a definate yes or no. SleeperZ was the most detailed about it saying that I would have to mess with the EGR setup slightly. Anyways I got my answer no thanks to you
thxz for your help sleeper

Because it doesn't matter what header you use... there is more to it than the EGR,, ooo well, but since you already have your answer........

It'll bolt on, it's been done before with a similar design. But there's more to it than just the header piece fitting. But good thinking on saving the money.

I knew the flang wouldnt bolt up and that thier would be modifying teh exhuast a little bit but I was mainly concerind about room adn it bolting right up. Is that the only thing tha woudl stop be from puttign on in my car is the flang not bolting right up without custom work due other then room and thigns gettign in the way but generaly speaking.

Basically there is a bracket for support on the Focus header and the stock manifold where our dipstick is. Second our cats have four bolts connecting them to the exhaust manifold where the Focus cat only has three. I am 110% sure on these facys becuase i have a stock Focus exhaust manifold laynig on my front floorboard as I type this.
