We have supersprint & sebring V6 headers so far.
It drops the exhaust temperature significantly, quick rpm ramping
....but they're three to one type, not the equal length type.
How's Evosport going ?

Sorry for the delay. We have received twice the number of anticipated pre-orders. This ended up pushing production back until the flanges could be made to cover all of the pre-orders. I am expecting production to start very shortly. I will post an update in the next "R&D" post.

Will they require a remap? Do they bolt right up to the stock system?

They do not require an ECU remap, however it does definitely take advantage of the additional flow. The headers and ECU remap are included in our stage II package.

Btw, those headers above are not equal length.

Yes, but 3 to 1 can still be equal length; take ours for example

The headers should work on all V6 3-valve engines.

So you have mounted them on an SLK32 and they fit OK. How is the clearance? Did you have to remove the engine to install them? When I talked to the MB tech that installed my parts I asked him about headers and he thought it might require removing the engine because it was so tight.

The ECU will compensate to a point, but further ECU tuning will allow the car to fully take advantage of the air flow.

Headers will help a stock C32 significantly in HP. "How much" will depend on what modifications are installed and how everything works together. Everything needs to work together as a system in order to achieve maximum horsepower.

If you are installing headers and nothing else, expect only about a 10-12hp gain.

Your C32 engine needs more air! for the money, you will see more gains with our C32 ODPS (about 30hp) than just the headers alone.

Hope this helps!

Have the headers been installed in a SLK32 yet? As someone mentioned I am wondering if there is enough clearence to install the headers with the engine in place. Also what is the pricing?

The same headers (SuperSprint) for the w203 will also fit the SLK32.

So, does the engine have to be removed to install the headers? Which one does Evosport carry: the Sebring or Supersprint? Which is one is equal length & which one is better? TIA.

For the SuperSprint headers, the engine does not need to be removed - the install is relatively simple for our technicians.

The SuperSprint units are the best headers for the 3.2L - peroid. We would settle for nothing less!

Tom, when I looked at the supersprint site the headers pictured were not equal length. Did they just post a picture of the wrong headers or did you guys move away from the statements about having equal length headers.
