MBH LT Headers - My last mod...seriously!!!

My MBH LT headers should be installed tomorrow. I will have a full write up, an "after" dyno posted, etc. some time in the next 2 weeks. But in the meantime, here's a little teaser pic, and a baseline dyno. And, yes, the quality of these LT headers are absolutely top-notch!!!!

* Mustang Dyno baseline (pre-MBH LT headers): 409 RWHP / 373 lb-ft RWTQ
(note - 2nd run calibrated for a DynoJet - 424 RWHP / 387 lb-ft RWTQ)


Apparently, I'm currently running a bit 'rich' with just my RENNtech ecu flash tune, high-flow secondary cats, and BMC high-flow air filters. We'll see what happens after the MBH LT headers are installed. Also, I'm just adding the LT headers; my secondary high-flow cats and oem resonator are staying intact.

See my sig for current mods before MBH LT headers...

More to come soon ...

Awesome!

I can't wait to see your results.

I'm leaning towards a set of these.

Just want to know if you have a CEL? I only have a tune and sometimes the CEL pops up. I bought a OBD2 code reader to erase code-lean condition bank 1.

The MBH headers should be on tomorrow, and the only CEL that I would possibly anticipate is an O2 sensor CEL. I have a code reader/eraser as well...but there may be some way to eliminate that as well. I will have it re-dyno'd to see if my car will run lean after the headers...hopefully not, especially since my car is currently running too rich.

Nope...just took it with my BB phone. The tech that's installing them said the MBH LT headers are the BEST he's ever seen...and he's an expert AMG tech and works with a lot of modded cars.

Before, I've ever had an opportunity work with Wade @ Euro.spec. I knew of him and the work he did. The guy really knows his stuff. In all honesty, having a tech/shop that can, not only install parts, but fix a cars issue if they arise. Really sets him apart. Wade is a very nice person and a pleasure to talk on the phone with.

I think we are luck to have some really great guys joining up to MBW lately. You've got Bruce @TTM, Wade @ Euro.Spec, The guys at Fluid. Not to mention all the contacts they have. Plus their ability to either take your car to the next level. Or give a quality referral to a shop in your area.

As for the headers, i said it before. Receiving a compliment for the hard work we put in really makes it worth it.

These headers are built to out last your car. So much so, I put my money where my mouth is.. Offering a lifetime warranty for all the headers we offer.

OMG, ppl...this thing is absolutely CRAZY now!!!!! The sound from these MBH headers is un-freakin' real; I cannot imagine what it would sound like if I didn't have my oem resonator and high-flow secondary cats.

I don't know the power yet; hopefully will dyno next week, but I just cannot stop smiling from ear to ear. The sound has changed...to say the least; step on it, and it's a completely new ANIMAL...like a DRAGON in fact!!! I'm waiting for pics and and "fly-by" video that were taken by the tech and another MBW member; as soon as I get them, I will post them up.

More info to come ...

No drone whatsoever! Also, the tech who installed them said these are the best fitting headers he's ever seen!

How much are you willing to bet? Now having to pay my ex alimony for 3 years, I could use some more $$, lol!!! No, really, I think this will be my last mod...I think I'm good with this; just may need my ecu flash to be re-tuned to allow for more power from the headers.

Hahaha...really is part of the header mod and not separate from it.

Time will tell... never say never ...last mod

Congrats on the MBH they look great. Hope the dyno proves some strong results.

The 'ex' will think you have really gone over the edge now. I can hear it now,"You ruined this car!" Maybe now she won't try to take it from you.

Interested to hear how you are liking the increased sound levels. Music to your ears.

1. I couldn't give 2 *****s what my ex thinks now, lol!

2. She cannot take anything else away from me, especially my car, haha...got 50% custody of my 2 kids, got my house, my car, and everything else I wanted; most importantly, I got RID of her, hahahaha!

3. Yes, I think any ecu flash "retune" is just part of my MBH header mod...I think the flash needs to be adjusted for the full power of the MBH headers.

4. The sound with these MBH headers is absolutely INCREDIBLE...while cruising, it's totally normal just like before, but step on it and OMG...it's an angry BEAST to say the least!!! Decibles are way up and the sound is very different, but better. I'm going to try to post a video or at least the link to a video of a "fly by." Without starting any tuner war, I think there's some real competition in LT headers for the C63 AMG now.
