25086, Power Package
Posted by TobascoJapan, Jun-11-02 10:12 AM
I was look at a package on www.airdynamicracing.com which includes a header, intake and exhuast. Would this put on alot of horses in my RS or just make it lose alot of torque? Has any bought this package yet cuz' it's pretty damn cheap at only 379.00. Please fill me in on how many horses it can porduce. Thanks

That site made my ass jump when the music started blasting... Looks like a good deal... I paid $160 for my header, $60 for my intake (short-ram), and about $220 for a custom cat-back exhaust. Figure in the price of getting that muffler welded on your piping, or better yet a custom 2.5" mandrel bent cat-back.

Headman's headers is a good brand. But, i wonder how good it will perform.

i wouldn't trust "horspower gains" unless i saw dyno charts. Talking to people with the same parts is the best way to shop in my opinion.

I would buy it, it looks like a decent deal. Hell someone has to try it and get the word out whether it is good or bad lol. Looks decent to me. After all, with things like intakes and mufflers, you are almost just paying for a name on a universal muffler. It is the entire cat back that will differ in gains from one brand to the next, and intakes usually don't differ more than 1 HP. It is the header build and design that will either help or hurt but it still would not be a bad deal.

another vote for yes.
You could always sell the header if it sucks. :)

Danm!! Chaye you either need to sober up, sleep. Lose the caps lock next time...

As for the package, everything sounds good. The prices are pretty good also. For the install of the exhaust Midas just told me that theyd install a cat back exhaust on my car for 50.00 + a few $ for gaskets if the exhaust doesnt include them. I say go for it.

I don't think heddman makes a header for the eclipse yet. Even though they have it on their site that they make one for the eclipse they don't.
They are looking for a test car though in Southern California area click here for more information.
