Headers and side pipes
I received the headers and side pipes , oh man do they look great. I just have one question, why is there a hole in the driver side header?, is this for air to escape?

Oxygen sensor for a computer.
IF you have no computer, by a plug and fill the hole.

Are you saying it's just a hole drilled in the tube or is there a bung welded in the pipe????? Got pictures?

That's odd. Maybe they left it that way so the buyer can tap the threads they need??? In that case, you need a plug and a matching tap/die kit.
Or a welder and some scrap steel.

I have the same pipes from Josh. There were threads on the inside of the hole. They should be there.
