C32 shorty headers - Fire sale

We have 2-3 sets of these left and want to clear the shelves...once they are gone, we won't be making any more.

So, first couple who call the shop get them.





$399 plus shipping... IE cost...

And...GO

cool you got your headers installed.

do you see more lower end power or is it higher end power from the headers?

i got 178mm crank pulley upgrade thats been great low end power. added on the NW DCAI and that seemed to help more top end. i'm getting the headers installed this week and heard great feedback on them from all the posters on these boards, so wondering where the added power will be.

It seems to have a fatter midrange and it's picked up a little of the lost low end power from the installation of the SL55 Airboxes and y-pipe. It's been the most noticeable mod since the 64.7mm Eurocharged pulley.

great feedback thanks. did you get an updated tune from Jerry as well? when i bought mine he indicated that should be done and could help me do that with a cable hes sending...

i'll report back after my headers get installed !

PS - i never did a baseline dyno at a shop, but according to this cheapo 10 buck iphone dyno app i have called "DashCommand" it reported horsepower of 426 (not at the wheel) with my current mods of 178mm pulley, Needswings DCAI and Tune.

I don't have Jerry's tune yet. That's next and then the transmission tune after. After that, thinking about an ASP crank pulley and some injectors.

Please do a before and after dyno session for posterity on the same dyno with the same operator in equal conditions. Thanks.

Your $650 headers are the new version - 3 in 1, which are significantly better design.
These offered here are probably "old stock" from the old "log" design, according to the pictures posted above

Uh, get a tune if you are running those mods on stock software.

interesting, as we haven't seen any data to state that they didn't make power. I had the fastest C32 out there and made great power with them, then went to long tubes.

I'm working on it little by little. Got my 64.7mm installed with SL55 full intake, your log style headers, and big heat exchanger. Now I'm saving for the software, but I have to recoup the costs of my header install. You'll get my call when it's software time.

So let's get honest real quick, since you are selling the new 3-1 headers and I have the log style like the first pic. Which are better and why did you stop producing the log style? Be honest, or PM me if you like.

just be careful with the car and watch your A/F with those mods and no tune.

I can get you a tune for $300 plus shipping of the cable.

The logs were 5+ years ago, the 3/1 are 2 years. We didn't have a jig anymore for the logs and new fabricators in the shop wanted to try something more similar to the evosport at the time. Gains were about the same.

I will be hitting you up when I have the extra indescretionary money. Everything on the car is Eurocharged except the heat exchanger. I don't see any need to change now.

Tell me you have a set left?!? I'm in India right now and I was just able to get online today after a week. If so, please let me know how much shipping would cost to the zip code of 19958.
