Headers

Post by kinkyllama »

Im thinking about buying the headers for the Forenza from intimidator..
Anyway i know there are 4-2-1 and 4-1 and i read ones better for top end and ones better for bottom end? If so which ones which? 320$ is a resonable price for headers right? Ive seen them from 200-thousands

its actually more complicated then that, there is tons of math that goes into making a header for different RPM ranges, and it has to do with length and size

Yeah but i thought it had a hudge factor. But yeah, now i think of it everything has a hudge factor.


Another thing i just realized, does a turbo only use two of the cyclinders exhausts and you need a different header for a turbo system?
