2001 boxster s headers with auto trans
 
Looking for people with a 2001 boxster s with auto trans who have successfully installed headers and which ones they used. Running into 2 issues in my search - first, quite a few headers say " does not fit 2001 boxster s" and I'm unsure why this is. Second, a lot also say they do not fit auto transmission models. Anyone with this car can give fit reccomendations and /or know why there is an issue with the 2001 boxster s fitment? I know the auto trans issues have to do with the trans fluid line placement.

The problem fitting headers to Tip equipped cars has to do with two things: The Tip itself is larger than the manual gear box, and the rather large tans cooler that sticks out on one side of the gear box, leaving little to no room to route header pipes around.

I have the Fabspeed headers on mine and I had to change the coolant pipes that run next to the engine on the right side a bit.
