^It's a header, not headers. It takes around 2-3 hours for the average Joe.
Joe must not be too quick lately...

I'd say an hour is pretty doable the first time out.

The AP1 test car netted a peak gain of 6HP with a healthy 4-5 HP throughout the RPM range. The header does not lose power anywhere.

Torque was even beter, 5lbs of torque down low, ~4lbs peak.

Test car setup: Baselined with Mugen cold air scoop, test condition added Berk Header & Berk Test Pipe

[QUOTE=GPW03,Oct 4 2006, 08:36 PM]Don't think they have posted an official price yet, but they did say it would be under $1000

So couldn't part of those gains be attributed to the test pipe?

No, since it was part of the original test and the test with the header.

Nope. Both test pipe and header togeather gave gains cited. Read carefully.

^^^ That's what I saw. At least it seems like a reasonable price for some bling.

I refuse to use a Test pipe. I drive my car daily and dont want to deal with the headaches that are associated with it.

Would Berk be willing to dyno the header without the test pipe?
