Sucks that the C55 didn't share parts like the C32/SRT-6 do

Inconel is also used for the lightweight sport exhaust of recent supercars, the McLaren MP4-12C, the Pagani Huayra, the Aston Martin One-77 and the Koenigsegg Agera.

My question is, aren't tuned, equal length headers always better?

I believe yes. The long tube headers should create perfect flow. As each cylinder fires, its exit out the exhaust is timed perfectly with long tube equal length headers (ideally). Essentially, better flow, more power.

Does anyone make LTH for the c32/srt6? remember evosport headers having a unique design, not sure if they were LTH though

These look like shorty headers so its good for folks in CA. If they went with a mid or long tube design you'd be eliminating the primary cats and making more power.

Eurocharged USED to make long tubes for the C32, but then someone broke in and stole their jig.

And if I remember correctly, the Evosport headers were equal length shorties.

Any idea on power from boltons? it doesn't look like it says in the description. Inconel is neat, very light. I'm surprised how cheap it is. Maybe similar gains to the eurocharged ones? about 30whp with a tune?

Wow these are expensive. The Kleemann kit is only $500 more. Rob will probably get some #'s for the headers soon. I remember first seeing the NW intake for the C32 one day and recall the dyno graph (no tune) being posted a few weeks later. My guess is about 20 whp.

Shorty headers have their advantages but LT designs like the Kleemann will always make more power.
