PPE Longtube Headers

I haven't data logged enough to see how much it's compensating however at WOT it was running into 11.5 range, at idle it fluctuates quite a bit into 16s. I've driven my car about 100 miles, but haven't done logging enough or compared to pre and post install. I mainly looked how far they were from my targets. Hoping to do this over the weekend. Will report over time.
Something to note also, my car actually is quieter in cabin after the headers during highway cruising, found that interesting.

I've looked pretty much everywhere and can't tell what's wrong. About the only thing that I haven't check is the manifold bolts, maybe they werent tighten enough. But then, that seems like alot of work to try to cure a small problem.......

Ok, so it sounds like the car will run ok, but anybody running these will need a retune. I was planning on it no matter what, but I'll definitely get tuned sooner than later.

Are stock exhaust gaskets directional ?
Answer: YES, bolt holes on the gasket should form a trapeziod. The stock gaskets have a arrow, point it up!

Gonna have mine installed probably first week of April or my bday.
DE Nonrev
Mods
06 air box with k&n
MD 5/16 spacer
MD v1 dual exhaust
Going to do before and after dyno with test pipes. Both being tuned
Also buyer informed me he doesn't have the extensions for 02s. He's going to buy from PPE and have them ship to me. I'm guessing these are pretty vital
