They're Borla's. He's a big Borla reseller. He also does great work.

I wouldn't recommend those headers. They gain very litter horsepower. If you are going to chnage your headers, might as well go with something proven to have significant gains such as Crawfords.

Changing headers is a PITA, do it once, do it right.

Stillens have proven gains as well. Here is a pic of them

I've heard from several sources that the Borla and Stillen headers are manufactured by the same outfit, and but for the cut outs on the Stillen flange, which seems like it would weaken that part, are the same piece of equipment. When you look at the side by side they look identical except for the aforementioned flange. I love this because there are so many people out there that love Stillen just because of the name, and hate Borla, just because of the name. Have an open mind, and do your research before you make claims that the same part under a different name is better, or worse, depending upon your perspective.

[B]I use to buy stillen until the messed me over on a $1000 for 2002 maxima headers. They claimed 18 hp at the wheels lol i gained 2 hp and lost torque. Im not the only one who lost either everyone on maxima.org did to. So i would never trust stillens over priced stuff again.

Not to be rude but just ask stillen for their dyno sheet lets see how long it takes them. When i aksed for my Maxima they never did show me, but they dynoed they said lol .

Thanks Glen

Esemes...

Mind sharing why you put that logo on our Header?

Reference our site http://www.crawfordz.com/headers.htm for details.

just trying to be funny.... (i didnt mean to misrepresent)...


i was hoping someone would think i was making my own, which is funny in and of itself..... (guess i missed the mark on that idea??)

please dont be offended by it (i give all the props to doug and crawford efforts....)

not only do i not design headers, i couldnt install them either...... (well, maybe if the motor was out of the car i could...)



so let me clarify (JIC), i am going with the above headers, from CRAWFORD Z CAR..... (already am using the plenum and h/f cats by doug)

i have searched thru nearly a dozen different types, and think these will net the best results for my FI setup (and several ATI/VORTech guys already run them, with great success)....

you get what you pay for with this part, im sure of it.... (once saw the DC headers for under 300 new..... too goood to be true, imo)

We love competition... as long as you bring your own product to the table!!!!

If you're near Nashville, or will be at Fontana in September there will be PLENTY of Z's there loaded with Crawford goodies!!!

As for right now... it's 75 and sunny here in Nashville, and I'm going OUTSIDE!!! See ya!

Do any of you know what type of power headers will give us in a car with high flow cats and a TD exhaust? I am guessing it would be more than on a stock car....correct?

I am debating between headers and a plenum. Thanks!
