Default Re: Headers anyone???

^^^ That's exactly how i am going to build mine in a few weeks; its easy because it is simply copying more or less the factory design just that with round tubes and bigger primaries and since they are of unequal design they won't put out the heat that equal headers put out.

it will be interesting to see the comparison dyno, i predict the torque band is going to fall due to larger pipe size. should be interesting, might have to raise the rev limiter to gain more power on the top end.

it might turn out to be easier to just rework the stock headers...?

Yep that's what my plan is, to simply take the cast portion of the stock headers, cut it off, and make it with 1.75" stainless round tube primaries. I will do a diy in a couple of weeks when I get to it (and cost, doing it myself, will be less than $100 for both). I am expecting about 5-8 hp and about 5-10 lbs weight decrease. Not bad for about 5-6 hours of work and $100.
