Re: Dc headers,injen cai and injen exhust gains???????

My take on this is that you should have asked that question before you purchased these items. I personally do not know this answer, but can take a guess...
Typical exhaust 5-8 rwhp
Typical intake 5-8 rwhp
Headers (depends on who you talk to) 0-20 rwhp... My guess is the headers will add 5-15 rwhp, but that's just a "dumb guess". Add those up and you'll probably be between 10-20 rwhp if you're lucky.

"sport compact car measured 10hp gain to the rear wheels on the nismo cai, headers AND exhaust"

This is always a very interesting dilemna. I'm convinced that the bolt ons are dynamic. In other words, they behave differently in different combinations. I wonder if sport compact car measured them with a different Plenum, what the gains would have been? Each mod is a function of another, not simply additive. Wax on Wax off.....you can only exhale as much as you inhale.

Maybe the headers will ALLOW up to a 20 hp gain at redline, but it has only provisioned 5 HP in a given intake configuration. Open up the intake and the headers may allow far more gains.

I'm going to take readings on my ride that is stock, with a JWT pop charger and z tube. Then I'm going to install the Crawford plenum and take more readings. Then I'm going to most likely do the headers and cats from Crawford as well. It will be interesting to see what kinds of gains I get.

I'll be using a G Tech Comp and before you flame, realize that it's not the validity that matters here (although if I can get the weight nailed down I'll have VERY valid HP readings at the wheels), it's the difference taken between mods. If anyone has weighed their fully loaded G without chin spoiler and has a weight, I'd love to have it.

2004.5 Coupe/5AT/Ivory/Everything but chin spoiler/Z Tube-Popcharger/Crawford V5 Plenum on the way

Re: Dc headers,injen cai and injen exhust gains???????

will be verified before that if you want to see the dyno slips i already did....
but anyway, most horsepower gains that people claim are at redline, i got 20rwhp just below redline(didn't want to f-up car)
in reality, who really drives around at redline all the time? No one! you are going to want to measure what your mods do in i'd say 4th gear at full throttle, thats what a dyno does. Those mods, which i am debating on those headers will be a perfect combination. Lots more airflow and power at HIGHer rpms.

Tony,
Go out and jump on a dynojet with SAE corrections and post the results. We're all interested in hearing your gains.

From my recent readings, I bet about half of -Pearls gains are from his S-AFC. The more I learn about this thing, the more I like it [img]/w3timages/icons/smile.gif[/img].
