it would be kinda pointless to post up a Dyno.. unless you did a dyno first without the headers being on..there is no way to tell how much of a gain the headers gave you

A dyno pull to see how much power the headers made, you won't know because you didn't do a pull prior installation. Still do a dyno to see how much power you putting down with your current mods though.

I can very easily tell you they made power. Its extremely noticeable! Now an exact number i cant tell you but ive done several 0-60 pulls before the headers and my average was 5.4 seconds post headers and cats its 5.1 i dont thing cats alone make that difference. These tests were done on the same road and timed on my go pro and if anything my tires tread is less so it should be slower realistically. a consistent .3 tenths of a second is pretty substantial for 2 bolt-ons not to mention most of the power gained is in the top end since its freeing back pressure in the exhaust. My finally verdict is the headers are worth it for sound alone not to mention it completely wakes up the cai intakes you hear them very very clearly now but the install is so agonizing and expensive. This is not a diys unless you're a mechanic TRUST ME.

Im going the z1 header and test pipe combo in December. Installation shortly after. I'm paying attention to chuckie311 install because I think on the 6mt the steering column on the passenger side gets in the way. Bit uncertain.

I've been absent for a bit, but nice build thread. I love the Video...yes its scratchy but I can tell it's loud and sounds good n mean! I had my FI LTH's and CBE installed all at once like you did and omg...so much difference especially in sound. Power was instantly felt obviously too.

I've got a LT CAI as well and I used to love the sound it made with the M370 intake but the Headers and CBE make it a totally different animal. I'm looking forward to some more short clips n vids!

Btw you can always count on Rochester to point out your video flaws....like digging for gold lol! He's just funny like that.

Thumbs up on the thread bro

Took my Girlfriend to a car meet and she saw my friends STI with gauges and she thought it was the coolest thing and got me one for our 3 year anniversary. (its the thought that counts) and sense ive got a $200 gauge it would be dumb not to install it not to mention Nitrious might be in the future
