  • exhaust and headers

    For horsepower purposes, dont take money into account or sound, what is the best engine back exhaust?
    Headers- rksports or pacesetters? I dont care about leaking which will give me more hp?
    Cats- carsounds or magnaflow...2.5, 2.75, or 3 inch?
    Exhaust-borla, magnaflow, dynomax or costom 2.25 inch duals? I dont like flow master. And 2.5inch or 3inch?
    Hope some of you have the answers

        Yes, the carsound cats are Magnaflow. If money is not an issue, go with Random Technology...they flow the best. With headers, the CIA's have a really good reputation, but their primaries are only 1.5" and the RKsport's are 1.75". If you are eventually going to use a poweradder (S/c, T/C or NO2) than i would have to imagine you'd get a bit more power from the RKsports. I'm not really sure about the Pacesetters, so you'll have to get more oppinions on that. In terms of cat-backs and pipe size, it really depends on if you plan on using a power adder. If so get the 3" piping. If not, the 2.75 will flow more than enough and will probably sound a bit better.

          Thanx, i am going to go with at least nitrous, maybe a turbo, so if i am going with the 3inch what should i use? Custom 2.5inch or 3inch, and what company? And go with random technology cats.

            When picking out exhaust, the only real noticable difference is sound and tips. You'll gain about the same. Same really with headers, as long as they are coated. Cats, you can go with the Random Techs. Not too much difference with those either though. Not sure which ones, but some of the cheaper RT don't flow as well, so you'll have to check that out.
