Headers or Not???

I am at my buddy Joe Donovans shop right now and just dynoed my Belangers. With no other changes at all, it picked up 23HP peak and 20TQ peak, with improvements everywhere under the curve above 3500RPM, and no loss at all down low. BTW I'll be adding the Belangers and Bassanis to my website this week ;)

Actually Stinker it's the opposite. the paxton not work with the bassani's without modding the SC brackets.

I have bassani's.

also...I ran a 12.998 in 40F without the headers.

Ran a 12.978 in 75F with them. they definitely make a difference.

the runs were done before the sc...

Great post Justin.

A good one for Nowwhat to read. :D
 
Gibson makes the cheapest bro, but I had them first onthe QC and saw no noticable difference compared to the long tubes.

I would contact Justin, he will probably have a killer deal on long tubes shortly
 
ohhh FOR F$%CK SAKE......

The MAN ASKED ABOUT HEADERS ON A S/C APPLICATION...NOT HOW MUCH THEY MAKE ON A N/A DYNO OR HOW MUCH THEY IMPROVED A 1/4 TIME WITH OUT A S/C.....

DON'T GET THE FREAKIN HEADERS IF YOU HAVE A S/C.....

ADDING HEADS AND A CAM..?..GOING TO MATCH PORT YOUR INTAKE...?..THEN GET SOME $2500 HEADERS AND HAVE AT IT....you will need them and they will kick ass...

I went to DC performance this A.M. to confirm that I still don't need headers and I will be making 1100rwhp....

For the 400th time....when you install long tubes and see a big hp gain....a large portion of that gain is in the catless midpipes....yes....headers will get you 15rwhp on a N/A truck...now ask yourself if 15rwhp is worht the $$$$$$$$$

Headers look coool....they sound cool....but so does a CAI.....:D
 
Thanks Stinker. Just not sure long tubes ($1,500 or so) would be worth it for me just doing... mids(w/highflows), catback, CAI (JMB most likely), and a stage II pcm.

Need your advice. Truck is supercharged with stock exhaust manifold,Boomer's cat-less mids and a Magnaflow catback. What HP gains ,if any can I expect by going to headers?Any dyno numbers available? What is the consensus on a brand? Lots of questions and have gotten different answers from three of our vendors.


Vprpwr added long tubes to his Paxton truck and a ported thottle body and got 8rwhp.....:rock:

the ape likes headers 'cuz they are shiney....Stink likes them 'cuz they have the word "head" in them.....they both endorse them 'cuz they are old and they long for the days of big CI's, twin Holleys and tuning via a screwdriver and the color of a tailpipe....barbarians both of them....and I can't prove it but I think they sodomize farm animals...


male ones....
