So, now my question is, is it really worth it to go for short headers with test pipes I have with catback or no, it is not worth it? In other way, am I getting with z1 short headers 10+ whp or no?

Many thanks for sharing your experiences. Highly appreciated.

Here is a thread of some who had z1 headers and saw gains of 16whp over stock headers, and with retune added additional 3whp or a total gain of 19whp.

Here is another result comparison of stock vs z1. Moncef from Admin Tuning saw 18whp gain with tuning, so very similar results. He said he runs Tomei headers on his personal cars and also saw gains of 19whp with retuning.

Here is another one of Moncef's video where a customer of his switched to ISR longtube and ISR y pipe from stock headers and tomei y pipe and saw gains of 20whp.
