is an ovc kit needed with rksport/as&m headers?
i was searching through some old posts and some say they didn't need it
would it benefit me that much to have it anyways?
and please, only rksport/as&m owners chime in
i know longtubes and shorties are totally different so i don't want people telling me they needed it for those
thanks guys

 

It's not needed, but it definitely helps with the design of the header. I have ASM's, so I speak from experience. I'd say go for it. Makes swapping out the wires easier too.

FYI, when you do the #6 plug wire, what I did was cut it long, and routed it from the loom over to the strut tower, and zip tied the wire to an A/C line, then ran it down and under the #2 primary. This offers a bit more wire to header clearance than it would if you went between the #2 primary and the head. Knock on wood, haven't burned one yet.

 

AS&M here with wires pretty much in the stock location. I did use a few zip ties just to be on the safe side. Its been over a year and no problems yet.
