Well, there is the issue that the VX's exhaust manifold is a short log-type, with a catalytic converter right there.

In order to retain a catalytic converter, you'll have to get one from another 5th gen model and fit it to your exhaust, then that header will fit.

The thing I don't remember is whether or not your downpipe is long enough to make up the distance between the catalytic converter and the rear pipe section. You'd have to look into that yourself.
