Sound,Pics & Video Clip of Fluid Motor Custom Headers

Here you go guys as requested , Sorry i started a new thread i didn't know how to edit my last Thread to get the videos on the first post. I should have some updated Dyno numbers tommorrow afternoon and maybe some more pics. ENJOY as i am doing so every time i get in this freakin car haha.

Idle

Drive by to many cops in the area so i let off lol.

Last drive by.


My Exhaust setup as it sits.

Is Custom Fluid Motor Union Longtube headers. (Don't know primary or collector specs so don't want to quote anything)

Primary & secondary cats removed replaced with 3" Stainless mandrel pipes.

Resinator delete replaced with 3" Magnaflow Stainles X Pipe.

Stock AMG Muffler.

Again can't thank the guys at Fluid Motor Union enough for there amazing workmanship,hospitality and most important ther Honesty. If your in the midwest or anywhere in the world at that these guys can get it done no matter what it is you are looking to do.

Oh well, when do you think you'll be able to get a good file? I'm curious to see how they perform against EC's headers.

Couple questions for you. Are there any drone? How's the noise inside the car? And do you feel any lost of low end torque at all? Thank in advance.

Those are some sick looking headers. PM me the price if you don't mind.

Hey it looks like you are in my neck of the woods. Me and a few buddies are headed to Byron Dragway on Sunday morning. Head up there is you are available. I would love to hear that beast in action. Some of the cars rolling with me on sunday: Stockish Supra, STI, M5 and a 32Ford bucket with a blown monster V8.

Thanks Bruce the guys over at FMU did a wonderful job. I was checkin out a few vids from the cars you did and get inspired with that silver E55 & the Red B/S Clk is no joke sounds wicked as hell.

No drone at all the exhaust only livens up when its at WOT. Low end torque feels like its right there i don't feel a lose infact it feels stronger low end.

Nope no codes they still have the o2 sensors reading but they are connected to a tube of of the collector so the reading is there but shows how it would if there were converter on there. And thank you.

No, i haven't been to the actual track since the mods unfortunately i am having a hard time with my job since i just switched company and i am in the "evaluation" period. Money is tight right now but my headers are not Longtubes, but i do plan to just have my local shop delete the 2 cats that connect to the shorties. They don't seem like an extreme bend. But I do feel that 19" wheels really kill the speed, have you ever noticed the brabus wheels vs stock wheels?

Fluid Motor Union handled my exhaust as well and I like it very much.

Stock mufflers with nothing but pipes to the exhaust manifold.

Im just waiting for some LTH to go with my pulley in the garage.

Yes i agree the 19inch wheels do kill the speed of the car well mine atleast do with the extra weight and gravitation rotation. I did notice almost a second when i went with my stock 18" wheels and my 19" Brabus wheels
