Guys, need a bit of help!

Bought a set of headers off Rexnet last week, they arrived and i went to fit them.
As i went to put them on I noticed that the outlet on the headers was different to the inlet on the stock up pipe?

The headers have a 3 bolt outlet, whereas the up pipe (and the stock header outlet) is only 2 bolt.
Why is this?

Should i get someone to weld a 2 bolt outlet onto these headers?
Should i get a 3 bolt up pipe?



Any suggestions would be great,
Cheers.

Sounds like headers would most likely have come as a kit with the up-pipe (like you see on eBay quite a bit) as a bolt on package. Unfortunately one without the other won't work with oem (or many other aftermarket bolt on parts) so I reckon your best bet would be to change the flange on the headers to a standard 2 bolt

So an exhaust shop should be able to do this pretty easily then?
