Default RE: V6 Headers


ORIGINAL: ZachW04Stang

Short tube headers will add power, they will flow alot better than the stock. They would definitly give you 5 or so rwhp. Short tube mac headers would go great on the setup you have now and it will also make you car sound a lot better. I don't know why people seem to think short tubes won't add power. If you upgrade to long tube headers on an unbuilt v6 your 1/4 time will definitly go down because of the lost back pressure but you will gain top end which is great on the highway.
when you put them on your car, then talk. let me know about that power increase. i will say 1-2 hp max unless you are about 280-300rwhp. it was a nice thought though.
