I'll chime in. I did a batch of the 230K headers back in the day but sold all of them to germany, Those are cheap chineese replicas but they didn't do a good job of copying them. If you have the shorty style C230 headers those will help out quite a bit probably but if you have the similar design stock headers these won't help out much b/c they aren't much different. hope that helps.

So how do i know if i have the shorty style or the regular style headers?

open hood, look at your header - does it have a pipe going down as low as in the picture ?

or its a short little header.

it is not a direct bolt on if you want to convert from shorty to long tube headers, You will need an exhaust shop to modify your stock downtube (which should not be too hard).

[jstrat85]

i have headers for the m111 for sale. supersprint makes them.

i bought that same header for less than $200 shipped. it looks ok but the flange that connects to the head, the holes for the studs look like shit.plus you have to modify the header to exhaust connector because if your have the short manifold like me its not going to bolt on. in all its not that hard to do just have access to some power tools and a welder and you are good to go.
p.s. i haven't installed the header because i want to change the OEM catalytic converter for a High Flow at the same time.

i had the chip and the headers and i loved it! the only reason i took out my headers was because of my turbo kit! i wouldnt take these out even if you paid me!! but i had no choice. these headers coast much more now if you would buy them from supersprint beacuse of the euro!

[C230KSPORT00]

Well $800 is alot of money right now but if there are as good as you say then when i have the money i will let you know. But till then,let me know if someone gets interested. Thanks
