looks like the headers also leveled out your A/F ratio some as well

Just got the TS headers installed. Butt dyno suggests an improvement but a real dyno this Sunday or Monday will tell what it really is.

lil bit louder, but not noticeable to everyone.
only if you drive the car daily, you can notice the differnce. but i may add that you should get your headers coated before you install them. the underhood temps increased significantly.

cuz aftermarket headers don't have the heat shields the stocks do.

Enthusiast,

You may have seen this already but at least it was a good dyno of the TS headers. I also dynoed some plenum spacers I made too.

I'll need to see if I can find it when I get home... hopefully I still have it saved somewhere... Before the Vortech, I had a nice before and after dyno showing the Borla headers vs the Crawford headers.

The switch to Crawford showed a HUGE increase in low end torque and horsepower over the Borla. And since, the Borla vs stock was about equal, we could infer the same gain over stock. Peak power was slightly higher, but the big gains (and area under the curve gain) was on the bottom end.

Im looking for that area gain, as that will translate to the most overall gain in acceleration.

What your guys thoughts on DC's ceramic headers? They look like the cheapest out there. Does anyone have a dyno for those? Im really close to picking them up, I know every one says the crawfords are the best but by how much?
