Maybe I've missed it, but have you done a before/after dyno for just these headers themslves? It's a must for a mod like this.

It would be very informative for those interested if you did this. That's ofcourse assuming that you have had a dyno before with everything you've had before the header install and dyno'd there again.

I'd be willing to pitch in a little if needed
henry i plan on doing this if my exhaust is not too loud. me and hotel are going to put my vq exhaust on his car to see what it sounds like. if its not too loud i will get some lt's next month. i might get megans or sg lt's. i dont know how hotel's car was before but when he took me for a ride it pulled hard. kind of turbo like but not so dramatic like he said

Just do the LTs! You cant go wrong with them, plus you got the xyz pipe so if need be, just throw the cat in there

I'm still down to go to NS. I talked to Nick today and they will install my headers and tune my car.

The only thing holding me back is sound. i love the sound of your car, but it is too loud for me as a DD.

I'm hoping after we do the swap the sound doesn't change alot and it still pulls hard.

I like to the stealth sleeper style if possible no one believes I have TPS on my car now with a 3in exhaust because it's quiet.

What is the diameter of your exhaust? My VQ is 2.5 to 3in.

well it's probably 2.5 through out. I wonder what the pull on your car would feel like with my exhaust.

If you noticed doing our hwy pulls we started out even then you started to pull away we both were in 3rd.

Do you know the diameter of the megan LTs compared to other headers?
