Got the header attached, spent nearly half an hour grinding the intake flange down to make every thing happy. Attached a piece of pipe to the header, then bought some pieces to a adapt it to the stock exhaust for now.

....never finished writing this, installed the couplers and got everything linked together in the exhaust... And now it smokes. *facepalm*

The struts I bought were advertised to fit mk2 and mk3... Not surprisingly, the fronts don't fit correctly. The mounts aren't correct. Hopefully I can get it inspected with worn struts, because it will take days to work this out with the seller.
