Hah it helps being relatively close to Motorsport Tech as compared to the rest of y'all. They used to be based only a few miles away from here, if they were still in town I would have had these weeks ago lol. These are going on tomorrow with some splash guards! Will post pics!
Not nearly as modded as some here, and crappy cell cam shots, but I'll play. I live in the IE so close enough to LA! Will definitely try to make it to Fabulous Fords Forever at Knott's in April, especially if I have some sweet new Vorsteiners to show off :gossip:
Mods: Steeda Ultralite springs...
Do the performance connect headers bolt right up to the corsa without any cutting/welding? Are these available with high-flow cats?
The price is indeed quite nice...
This is the general consensus that I've heard but the unique high-rpm characteristics of the coyote is something I haven't seen tested with these headers as of yet. As my DD, I would certainly appreciate the low-to-mid torque range increases, but also want to keep high-rpm nature of this motor...
Interesting that they just went back to stock instead of something else. I may have to speak to them to see if they ever put them on the dyno. Part of me wants to be the guinea pig for these but I'm not ready to throw money down on headers just yet.
Hey 6G,
Does anyone here have experience with tri-y headers? I spoke with Doug Thorley Headers about a set of headers for the '15 GT after finding that they make some sweet tri-y's for the '11-'14 cars found here: WORX SERIES HEADERS
Copy of my email response from them:
I gave them a phone...
This was the most confusing part of my Steeda spring install. Some googling led me to a trick that worked perfectly though. You'll need a large 22mm socket to hold the strut nut, and a small deep-socket 8mm (if I recall correctly) for the strut rod. Have a friend hold up the strut while you grip...
Hah same man. It's pretty amazing that this manifold showed no losses anywhere in the band, just straight gains where it counts. This is certainly going on my list. I need to be ready for when those '16 Camaro SS's hit the streets! :headbang:
Still my daily-driver so the part-throttle torque is something i'd like to keep. Good point though, didn't consider the dyno graph implications. I had assumed they switch over at a certain rpm.
Those 6,000+ rpm gains are truly impressive though, considering the car didn't have longtubes
I'm sure this was covered elsewhere but I have a question regarding using this manifold. Does this hook up to the factory IMRC controls and still utilize the dual-runner capability of this manifold? If not, it seems there would still be some low-end torque gains left on the table...
SteveDoten@ARHeaders: Is this x-pipe version of your catback still in the works, if not releasing soon? Will it offer adapters similar to the corsa that allows it to fit to the stock lead pipes and to your new direct-connect system? Very close to ordering the Corsa for it's modularity to you...
