I'm not really sure....i may bring it to Lidios later in August to run a tune and dyno. I believe there is a thread showing what results can be expected if you install some headers.....i'm assuming 20hp + equal or greater tq.

Looks nice. Which side of the border are you on? We need to get a central/western NYS meet going.

I don't own them, but that is a problem with headers. Ceramic coating keeps the heat in them and puts it down stream.

There is a little heat, but it doesn't bother me at all

I have Mustang shorty headers (stainless steel & ceramic coated) and there is less heat coming off the headers.
