Buying Some Headers

[IgottaV8]

Ok, so which one is best for performance, X or H?

X gets better flow and H better Torque, right? So for drag racing which one is more beneficial?

For example, I have a bunch of torque already, so an X-pipe made sense.

 

[sdsubzero4]

Are you searching for torque or horsepower?

I'm a little confuse for the drag. Is torque better then horsepower on the dragstrip or is it the other way around? I heard the Hp gain is minimal with the X pipe. I just want to get the one that would help get better ETs on the track.

The difference is minimal, but CWO is about to let you know. I won't steal your thunder.

TQ = better 1/8 mile.

They installed my Borlas

Thanks. Thats what I'm concern with more.

 

[IgottaV8]

Yeah, I plan on going there this Friday, probably.

 

[Mustangcwo]

Go for the torque Danny, HP is much easier to gain through other parts and pieces.

 

[IgottaV8]

In your case, I agree with CWO.

 

[sdsubzero4]

So, what is the diff between the stock H and aftermarket H?

Sorry Ethan, not trying to hijack your thread.

 

[orange395w]

Diameter of the pipe and in your case cats. Aftermarket pipes are high flow cats.

 

[GT400SC]

If you have trouble deciding between H and X pipes, just buy a U pipe!

Sounds GREAT..........from the front of the car.

 

[IgottaV8]

Lol, GT400. I don't mind Danny, go ahead.

 

[sdsubzero4]

Thanks Orange.

Uh, GT.....S T F U......LOL!!!!

Thanks Ethan.

Well, I oprdered the wrong gasket, so I will sned it back monday and get the right one. But my X-pipe came in, and me Driveshaft safety loop, and my spark plug boot things, that prevent arc-over. All I need now are the heads, and the right gaskets.

They are meant to protect the plug wires from burning on the headers. Like your #3 plug wire with a hole in it. Remember I gave you brand new plug wires, but you still haven't replaced it? :nonono:
