MHP Longtubes & Mids just arrived!!!

And what a thing of beauty they are. Much thanks to Andy for the great customer service, quick turnaround, and clearly an amazing product. If these headers perform half as well as they look, I'm in for a belated Halloweeen treat.

Install is set for this Friday, Nov 4 through James at ACGSD, at which time the Kleemann longtube header tune file will also be flashed. Then it's off to the races!

Will post results as soon as available.

So you are running the MHP LTs with a Kleemann LT header file?

Whats the price on the Kleemann LT file..?

Why not MHP LT and MHP tune??

I think he may have had K1 before, so it would be a cheap upgrade. I've seen MHP LTs and K2 on the dyno at about 455 whp, 430 wtq. At the track is where you'll see an improvement with the MHP tune.

Believe me, I wanted the MHP v3 CDT tune, but simply couldn't afford to have my car down for 3 days while I mail out the ECU to Andy. I decided the second best route was to go with the Kleemann longtube file that James could load at time of header install. I've been assured that tune will still work very well with the MHP hardware.

That's true.

Given my strong stock results of 385whp/375wtq (posted in a separate thread), I'm hoping the MHP/Kleemann setup gets me another 90whp/45wtq to land right around the 475whp/420wtq mark. Same dyno, same conditions of course. I should be able to verify next week.

I'm interested to see your results. I pulled 446whp/424wtq. I was losing hp on the top end due to timing pull for lack of airflow(fans) in 5th gear.

Thanks guys for all the encouragement. I really hope the setup does our C63 proud at the upcoming roll racing event on 11/11. Should be some interesting match-ups. I'm particularly interested in going up against the stock 2012 GTR in attendance...I think I stand a good chance with his launch advantage removed.

Really looking forward to seeing this! We will have to slap the GoPro on your car for some of the runs.

I honestly think the GTR will win. The 2012 model is significantly quicker than the previous 08-11'. They are down to 2.9sec 0-60 and they are tracking 11.1-11.2sec stock on the 1/4 miles and around 124-125mph traps on the car magazines, I am not sure that you are at that level.
It doesn't hurt trying though, I think the GTR will pull on the start and you will be able to keep up a few cars behinds maintaining the speed.

Eric,

I received mines about 2and a half weeks ago and have a schedule install time for a week and a half or so. I haven't posted because I want to have it all install then I will do a review. Good luck with your install. Please PM me with how much the shop is charging you. Thanks!

Yes, got them installed at ACGSD last Friday as planned, however they proved too loud for my daily driving habits that often includes my 3-year old daughter. James happened to have a quieter, catted MBH setup in stock that he was willing to swap me for, so I made the switch back to that. Part of me is disappointed since I was really looking forward to trying out the MHP setup, but I'm also very happy with the additional power restored to my car with the MBH/Kleemann setup.

A big thanks again to Andy for the great customer and high quality product. To anyone without noise concerns, I highly recommend the MHP setup.

Stay tuned for the power results of my MBH/Kleemann setup.

So, they were louder than your old MBH catless setup?

Old MBH setup had resonators on the mids, so MHP catless no resonators were definitely louder.

In an interesting twist of events. Welcome back . Andy sells a fine product. In the end we have many customers where being the loudest on the street isn't their main goal. This combined with our modular mid-section set up makes it possible to meet the needs and wants of different customers. That's why we offer extra resonator options for people who want the power, but not so much the sound that running catless brings. In turn it helps keep the performance numbers up while calming the noise level a bit. These days the extra resonator option in our mid-section is becoming a popular choice.

Heard a C63 last week with BenzWorks headers and it is BRUTALLY LOUD!
Resonated mid pipes are definitely a must if the car is being daily driven.
