Do you mean the same header coated vs. non-coated?

It is about 10-15F.

We do not sell equal lenght headers. The ones on our C32 are prototypes. We do sell SuperSprint ones. Those are stainless, but can be coated.

As Vadim stated, the Supersprint headers are not equal-length, however they are equal-pressure at the collector, which is the goal of an equal-length header.

On a forced-induction motor, there is so much exhaust that the goal is to get the air out as fast as possible. The Supersprint headers do a very nice job of this.

Thanks,

Ben
