Default Re: Real Crossfire Headers - These ain't no stinkin' log style manifolds!!!

[ how much for uninstall and weld



quote=Speedriven]We've been looking for a way to carve our niche with the Crossfire crowd and after discussing what aftermarket is available for this car and what is not, something we noticed that was missing were real headers. Not a fancy log style manifold that simply mimics the inefficiencies of the factory ones but something that would offer real performance benefits for both the N/As and SRTs alike. We are gauging interest on this and need two things to get the ball rolling. First, we need to see how many people are legitimately interested in these based off a $100 deposit group buy. Retail will be $1299 and if we collect 10 or more deposits, work will commence with a $1049 group buy sale price. If we get to 20 or more, the group buy sale price will be $999. After we determine the number of those interested, we will need a local owner with a minimally modified N/A for design, fitment and testing. Later on, we will need a minimally modified SRT6 so we can test and document it's gains as well. These will be made so they are completely compatible with both factory and aftermarket exhaust on the N/As and SRTs.

Now for what everyone wants to know; How much power will they make? We are confident we will see somewhere in the neighborhood of 15-20rwhp gains with the N/As and 20-30rwhp on the SRTs. The factory exhaust manifolds are very restrictive. It's design was dictated on keeping manufacturing costs low and production high. Log style manifolds follow in the same footsteps. Real headers allow the motor to breath much easier because instead of just cramming all the exhaust into a log and hoping for the best, it merges the slugs of exhaust one behind the next and as such, reduces back-pressure and increases power.

Those that would like more information, feel free to email or call us at the shop. Rudy's email address is rudy@speedriven.com or he can be contacted via phone at 952-681-1000.

And for your viewing pleasure...
