Default Header question

It's long story but I have a guy who has a set of Borla headers he wants to sell. They are brand new but not in the box with a part number. I tried calling Borla but didn't get a good answer. Is there a big difference between C5 headers and C6?

Are they short or long tubes? Fitment will be different. Air tubes wont match up, and it will not bolt up to the mid pipe.

It would take some customing, but they would blot to the heads at least. Personally I do not think it is worth the effort.
