We made sure to look at the difference between the STI and the LGT twinscroll header.
The LGT piping appears to be est .25-.35" (OD) smaller, but because I didnt want to remove the heatshields to measure it, we just took an eyeball guesstimate.

The STI piping is slightly bigger. Not sure by how much, but I saw both off on the ground already. Didn't measure.
