Hey. I bought these headers on ebay for my 06 RS and they just don't seem to be working out. The item description says they fit my car and others on this site told me they should bolt right up. The problem is, the end that attaches to exhaust is on the opposite side of the car and there doesn't seem to be anywhere for the O2 sensors to go. Anybody know if I'm doing something wrong or are these just the wrong headers for this year and model. I would appreciate any advice. I feel like tearing out my hair cause I paid $180 for these headers plus $40 for shipping then another $46 for damn custom charges. Thanks

06 2.5i has a different exhaust system, they use equal length headers with the cat's built in if I recall correctly. You will probably need to obtain an 05 or older cat section and cat back to make it work.

does the 05 cat have 2 O2 sensors

yes all 2.5RS have 2 O2 sensors but the cat section is a different piece that bolts to the headers. your headers have at least 1 of the cats built inside.

Ya. I just contacted speedyracer and they sent me pics of the complete exhaust with headers. I do need to get a older style cat section goddamnit. now to find one
