X-metal make mid pipes and Sells various brands of headers...they don't make their own....PM Boomer and he will walk you through the options...

yeah I was expecting the "don't buy headers they for the money, they don't do shit" statement as well..

nowhat is correct X-metal makes mids but sells mopar and bassani (for sure that I know of) he may carry bellanger<long tubes as well>

I thought his current choice of headers were the bassani's and you can probably find numbers on the mids exhaust headers and a chip pretty easily I wanna say those mods alone are good for ~54rwhp

if you go on x metals website and click on exhaust components he shows long tube headers, they dont say who makes them. it just says these are our long tube headers, so i assumed that they were xmetals.

If you are looking for a custom one-off set contact Chris Hines @ Arrowlane - 480-829-9066, it will cost you about $3000-3500, and he has to have the truck to do it... but they will be 100% pollished stainless, billet machined flange, and equal length... all twisted up... they look perty.. I have a set on my sand car.. and am allways getting oogle eyes on them...

I am thinking about next year having him do a set for me... just because...

They're Mopar Headers.

thanks for the help, i had a feeling that they were mopar headers, the way it is written in the details it sounds like there x metal headers. thanks again for the help.

Yep...I predict that one of these days when he gets a little older, he's gonna try them and wonder why he didn't before, but we all have to learn I guess...

Here we go...........again...

paxton = $60 per rwhp gain
mid pipes =$22 per rwhp
catback = $33 per rwhp
NOS = $20 per rwhp

Headers = $110 PER RWHP.....THAT IS ALL I AM SAYING...YOU WANT 15-20 RWHP FOR $2000 GO FOR IT.....PUT A PAXTON ON AND THAT RWHP GAIN GOES DOWN TO 8-10.....

Drop the cats gain 25 hp and spend the other $1200 to $1600 on other fun stuff and still have lots left over for beer!!

There you go with funny math again...

It's 21 hp and 21 tq to the wheels and I paid $1500 for Belangers. That's $71 per rwhp by my calculations, not $110.

who came up with these numbers? do paxton's really cost $12,000??

Paxton....$9000.00 installed for a conservative 150rwhp gain = $60 per rwhp....

Jeez...

1) How did you get the Long tubes to fit up to the stock mid pipes?

2) How do you expect the average guy on here to buy Belangers + Tax + Shipping + Install + customizing the stock mids (which don't fir the long tubes) for $1500?

You just gotta shop smart and get off your butt and get into the garage.
Same way you can get a Paxton installed for $9000. More like $12k from what I've read everywhere else.

Just admit it Mike. :dontknow: Headers rock.
