Advance Headers High-Performance Stainless Steel Exhaust Extractors for HOLDEN Commodore VN, VP & VR 3.8L V6
The Advance Headers Premium Stainless Steel Performance Exhaust Extractors (A218SS) are precision-engineered for the early-generation Buick-derived 3.8-Litre V6 engines found across the Holden Commodore VN, VP, and VR series. Upgraded to a premium high-grade stainless steel construction, this heavy-duty tubular header replacement targets the warping and rust issues common to classic cast setups, lowering power-robbing backpressure to optimize exhaust gas velocity and deliver crisper engine response.
PRODUCT CONTENTS:

- Tuned mandrel-bent primary piping pathways ensure completely uniform gas flow routing, eliminating the heavy restrictions found in original factory setups
- Substantially optimizes overall exhaust velocity, delivering sharper throttle response and noticeable low-to-mid range torque gains—perfect for street cruisers and street machine builds
- Thick, precision laser-cut cylinder head flanges maintain flush mating boundaries to guard permanently against warping and exhaust gas leaks

⚠️ Crucial Steering Rack Compatibility Warning:
This product (Part No. A218SS) is engineered strictly to clear standard power steering setups. Because of the specialized shape and oversized housing components required by electronic variable-effort steering systems, this header assembly will NOT fit models equipped with a Variable Speed Steering Rack (variatronic steering setups found on select premium Calais or Statesman variants). Please inspect your steering layout prior to ordering.
Please Note: Professional installation by an exhaust specialist or qualified automotive mechanic is highly recommended to guarantee proper system alignment and a perfect leak-free seal.
