i was talkin to my buddy this weekend with the DOHC

he was telling me that the exhaust header will kill power if not enough things are done to the car...
but he said since i have the performance cam it might work


i was just wondering since i have the 52mm TB and the performance cam
and if i get the header i'm going to put it on the same time i put hte CAI on
will it kill the power?
or will i get the 5-10hp boost?

 

the header wont kill power, it will remove the low end torque.......i dont know how much more it will give you, but it shouldnt hurt your top end at all

 

so if i put it on i'm losing low end tq?

i'm losing power if i'm losing tq!!!!!!!!

i know headers add 5-10 hp though
depending on the other mods

 

you may be loosing low end torque....but you will be gaining it back at the top end

 

is it worth putting on in your opinion?

 

depends on what kind you get.....i like the loudness you get outta them....i had a pacesetter on my old r/t and loved it....now it hangs on the wall in the garage......

your best idea would be to get a long tube....unless you have inspections where you live

 

yea i live in california

and smog here really blows

my friend passed with his tb, magnaflow exhaust and aem intake
so i have othing to worry about

except the header..hahah

 

then your gonna wanna get a shorty header like the pacesetter....that way you can still use your cat convertor

 

yea thats what i have come to conclusion on doing

thanks
