Some nice longtubes with a nice burns collector and stright outlet seems like a right application for this car!

Sure, but as in my previous post, I also wrote with stock cats and Y-pipe. You deleted that sentence from your reply thereby changing the context of my post.
True. Thought you meant something else.. Appologies.
kids kids, keep this thread clean!!
jk, ok, some headers soon and cams with in two weeks if i can make it that long without getting bored, i really need to get some of the cars out of my shop so i have room for my G35 to begin...

ok that does it, i am taking the TS headers i am getting for free, cutting off the runners, stepping them up into a nice 3 inch burns collector and see what happens!!
Keep us updated

If you want to see what the bad *** header setups are, look at what these guys run. Yes I know, they were 10 cylinder cars and now 8, and many have flat plae cranks and spin to 20,000 + rpm. So what. They have tiny displacement and eek out absolute insane levels of hp. Header "design" is a bit of a black art.....alot of trial and error (do you have a backpressure gauge? Very helpful if you really want to start playing with stuff!).Call Burns...talk to them about your setup....they will tell you the right ones to use
The great thing about this stuff is its all been done 100 times...just on different engines. But again, so what
Exhaust design takes only a couple of things into account - pressure and velocity. It all falls into these 2 very basic categories. Determining the primary size, the type of merge collector, the length of primaries, the length of the tubes, etc all comes down to the physical properties of the engine, and things like firing order, cam timing.
Call Burns up, tell em what you've got and what you want...they are very helpful

yes i plan on talking to burns this week. i know how to weld good enough to make things stick together forever, i might polish up my skills so i can save a lot of money and start doing it all myself.
burns has a full catalog of everything you need from mandrel bent piping of any size to mufflers, collectors, everything!!
