Hmm, that might just be a typo or a wrong asumption. The ones I had looked at never said anything about it.

These won't fit without some modifications. The biggest issues I've heard of are with the crossover. The flange on the front header may not clear the transmission, and the bending on the crossover pipe isn't correct. I've also heard that they leak quite a bit. If you're capable of cutting/welding if needed, they're a pretty good deal for the price, but if you want an easy bolt-in job, XS Power/SSAC headers are a better bet.

Also, fit shouldn't matter supercharged or not.

the only thing i was thinking is that the pipe size may be a bit big for n/a motors ... but they don't say how large they are...

If you don't mind Chinese headers, Chinese quality, Chinese steel, Chinese fit, go for 'em. Personally, I'd pay the extra and get S&S. But then, for $200.
