bobski Posted July 30, 2014 Share Posted July 30, 2014 Hi all.Im looking at putting r6 headers on my 2010 xj6n but do i have to get the 5sl 2003-2005 headers or will the 5eb 1999-2002 headers fit.They look the same in the pics on ebay but wondered why people say 2003-2005 only.Thanks .

dt502001 Posted August 14, 2014 Share Posted August 14, 2014 The only help I think anyone can give you is that there is a reason why,like mounting pionts ,clearence issues ect..so if the seller's are stipulating certian years then there is a reason Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shaun_1990 Posted August 18, 2014 Share Posted August 18, 2014 Hello, I'm not 100% sure of why but you need the 5sl as I looked into doing this to my xj6 & gave up on the idea as you have to either bend the headers to fit under the sump without it catching or dent it which is not a good move in my opinion. I do have a scorpion can for sale but it's not a whole lot louder tbh, looks nice though & is only the end can with link pipe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pilninggas Posted August 22, 2014 Share Posted August 22, 2014 5SL definitely fit, it's essentially the same engine, but as shaun said you need to carefully dint it to clear the sump - I know I did it. The 5EB headers do not fit, a few guys on the FZ6R forum confirmed it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
