I Want LT Headers !

[Darkanion]

SUPERCHARGER.



but honestley i have removed my cats, i lost some bottome end torque, ang moved the torque curve a little higher in the rpm range. although that may hurt the 0-60 time, a supercharger will cure that.


I have a question about the x-pipe thing, how close to the headers do they have to be, i don`t have one but my banks "y" into single after about 2 feet after the headers, does it truely have to "cross" back to a duals to be an effective "x",or is a high flow "Y" able to scavenge abit too? i kinda think so, maybe just not quite as effective.

Am I reading this right? You're wanting to put an x-pipe on a single exhaust setup..??

It's virtually impossible for you to lose bottom end torque by removing the catalyst with a straight pipe.

no, not much point, my real question was were the "x" has to be located in assosiation to the headers, i used my truck as a bad example....

hmmmm, well, i`ts definatley impossible to tell now wit the supercharger....

Yeah, I was trying to figure out what the other side of the "x" was going to connect to.

Well, if you replaced the cat with a larger diameter pipe then it is possible to lose torque simply by condensing the flow and the reduction of velocity; and the resulting loss of pulse tuning energy.

If you just take a 2.5" catalyst and install a 2.5" pipe then you will not lose any power. You will probably gain a small amount on the top 1/3rd of your RPM range on a relatively stock motor.

The underlying theme here is that backpressure will never create power. It only serves to hinder power production because it is a direct restriction on exhaust flow.

You get these installed yet, J-Rizzle?

Kind of on hold at the moment due to funding.

But I just got word this afternoon tha I will be taking my ship to the ship yard October 19. Be there for about 3-4 weeks. That little trip will fund my headers and true dual exhaust. Just my little Thanksgiving appreciation gift to myself.

where is the shipyard?

where is the shipyard?

and you get paid to have the ship sit in the shipyard?
