A header with a turbo :eh:?

Um....you'll be running better than high 13's or whoever installed it will need to be shot.

:eh: You really need to read up about turbocharging before you even think about doing anything.

As fast as you can drive it.....I would say that the "someone" who told you was giving you a conservative estimate, just in case you're a crappy driver.

He's sooo right......you don't need headers, you have a 4 cyl. They have "a" (as in one) header. A turbo application normally requires a "turbo" exhaust manifold, but you can call it what you will.
