The LTH would only give about another 6 hp if you already have the CBE and HFCs if Im reading everything right. And if you have the test pipes you are only getting about 3 more hp. Now are the SCs that are coming out going to be able to fit to these?

LTH's, Catback, G3...those aren't too terribly higher HP/Torque. If I read it correctly, that's only 20ftlb more torque between stock and full exhaust (I say only from the transmission standpoint, 30-RWHP/20-FTLB is nothing to laugh at) |

Don't neglect the torque gains though. I mean, if you think about it, what Tony and his team have accomplished is quite remarkable. Compared to a setup with stock manifolds and HFCs, they're reducing backpressure. Usually, when you reduce backpressure, you lose some low-end torque as a tradeoff for gains higher up the rpm range. If you're lucky, you don't lose much or maybe even none at all. These guys managed to GAIN low-end torque! For me, it's a no-brainer to toss the Stillen headers I already have and switch over to these, because I lost torque with the Stillens. That, and they don't even line things up with their own CBE right. Stillen headers = FAIL as far as I'm concerned.

The RTP's made decent power and we saw a spike of 310 RWH SAE at the top but overall through the curve, they were very close to the HFC's. No doubt the Headers will out perform the RTP's and with a tune and CAI even more. In a supercharged application it is not even comparable. The headers will decimate all!

Is it just me or did the OP originally say once the dies came to mandrel bend most the tubes the price would be a few hundred cheaper but that would take about 10weeks? I went back and tried to find it but couldn't. Am I trippin?

We were originally going to sell the headers for $1,300-$1,400 if we were going to have to build them in many pieces. But, we want to get them out there for a reasonable price that is affordable. So we feel $995 is a great intro price and for previous customers $895.00 is even better.
