Ooooo .... nice. They make the factory effort look a bit ropey!

I assume something goes between the first and second primaries? ..... engine mounting? ....

Look forward to the finished pictures, should look well cool :cool:.

I'm not fitting them for sound, I'm fitting them for BHP......even if it is wasted on an auto:)

from what I understand BHP gains will be minimal and could have achieved similar by just swapping out the standard cats for some low restriction cats simple cut and weld on standard mani's.
No doubt it'll be slightly higher having LT's but we're not talking alot.

Think Gibbo said these were good for 40+ bhp easily, tune will definitely help the gains ;)

yeah what i'm saying though is it comes mostly from the derestriction of the better cats over the actual tubes themselves.

A chap in NZ is running these headers, with 100 cell cats, a CAI, full 3" system and a tune, and he's at 516 BHP at the flywheel...

I'll be running a similar set up apart from 200 cell and a 2.5" system, so I'm not expecting as much..:). If I get 465 to 475, I'll consider it money well spent;)

Oooooooooh....:D

I'm going for the 100 cell cats but like you have a small catback.

The tune I've just put on (but have yet to tweak) made a huge difference so if I can get anything like that difference again from headers then YAY!!

Bearing in mind Gibbo made 470 from just the PMAS and tune I don't think 490-500 is unreasonable.
