Im sure it has something to do with it. Also, you cant bolt up BBK headers to a MAC H pipe... thats what I was told anyway from summit.

i believe the clamp hole locations on MAC are different than others... you'd think it'd be a standard flange style/size? i dunno[&:]

Yea I know, I wonder how many people dont go with their prochamber or something like that because it doesnt bolt up, a few dollar change could mean a big difference for them.

If its like the pro-chamber than it hangs low as hell! My pro-chamber was visible from every angle of my car lol and only about 4' off the ground at stock ride height
You have to get everything in place, and before you tighten the nuts put a jack under the prochamber and jack it up. Then tighten down the nuts and then when you let the jack down the prochamber stays up, instead of hanging low. Makes the tips straighter too

dont think performance and sound would be noticable. but bbk should be a direct bolt on to your headers.

ofcourse. you might lose low end tq but you'll gain high end hp. I've read that high flow cats and no cats are almost identical for HP gains though.

So i have MAC headers, so that would mean i couldnt use a BBK H pipe. Correct ? I mean it would only make sence, if you cant use BBK headers and a MAC H pipe. True ?
