Got the headers and 3" pipes installed! Much louder, but wow does it bust the tires loose easy!:burnout: Can't really lay into it at all in 1st gear now. Guess a retune will be in order after a little more fuel pump. Wondering what kind of power it'll make now? Can certainly feel the difference! :D

I never dynoed after my S.W. Install so I couldn't give any info on increased power.

Where did you get the 3" pipes system? And you went with SW headers?

Was a home made setup.

I purchased a mandrel x pipe kit and some offset mandrel bends and mufflers etc. And fabed up the exhaust. Ran the pipes under the rear end. Joined the headers and pipes with band clamps, and also band clamps at tailpipes. Can remove the entire thing in just a few minutes.

Nice! I wanna do 3" piping too but don't know where to start. And SW exhaust is 1330. To much for me.

Where could i get stainless steel 3" piping got the exhaust? Anyone know

I used aluminized pipe. Have maybe $400 in the parts. Really happy with it! Have just over $1200 in headers and exhaust.

Got my headers from vivid racing for $801. Think the exhaust system was just over $1000.

Should have asked me. I could have gotten you the headers for less!

Why go 3" and keep the tiny tailpipes?

Ask Marty, sounds like he has some really good unspoken of prices!
Had I had any idea I could have found a better price, I would have.

I did! Works awesome, don't think it could flow any better! :coolman:

Haven't taken any pictures. Little more drone than I'd like, but getting used to it. ;)

Pictures.
Put some coating on it to try and quiet it. So that's the strange color.

Thank you! It's on the supercharged car. Made 550.86rwhp through the manifolds, feels much much stronger with the headers and 3 " pipes.

Took my supervisor for a ride this evening. He hollered like a girl! :D Was so funny.

No doubt!
I heard plus ~15-20rwhp with headers on boosted car, that's why I had then installed. Might benefit from a fresh dyno tune now.
