I spoke to OSR directly and I remember he did say that tri-y headers like the WeaponR Street actually performed worse than the stock header w/ the KWSC. He recommended a 4-1 header like the Megan for performance.

I think dew wants the race header tho, not the street header. The race header, yes, is a better setup.

Well, I get the race header wenesday so well see what happens. Oh and I'll measure all off the piping.. The Megan stuff is more than 50mm i'm sure of that. Now I just can't decided on skunk2 50mm or 60mm OR spoon bpipe..

Buy a skunk 2 60mm exhaust, i'm running it on my car without supercharger or turbo, as is... the car is way faster and louder than a MOFO... gotta love it when you pass my the police. Just blip it a bit or let the gas go and it gets even louder :-D

Interested in results. I'm saving up for my KWSC right now, as well.

Is that the same Megan header that you sold to me, then I never got a chance to install it, then you traded me your skunk2 springs to send you the header back? Haha...that was a funny set of transactions.

I may be interested, I got some other stuff in the works right now, but I'll PM you once it gets closer to buying time

i thought the only race headers is weapon r race headers? don't they leak and have fitment issues?

yep, fitment issue is easy to fix and the leak is fixed by welding it into one pice.

DrKelso · #35 (**permalink**) 10-25-2009, 11:38 PM

From what I hear from some other local guys, most good race headers won't fit properly because most times, the most power-adding designs just don't fit with the stock mounting points. If it doesn't fit, you make it fit.

I guess that's what makes the difference between a real tuner and a credit card-toting wannabe? I would definitely consider myself the latter. I'm too chicken to actually mod the car itself. I just bolt things on that make noise and hope that I can go faster
