Stratocaster: did you have an exhaust or testpipe installed when you did the dyno or was the car stock?

 

whether or not the car had the stock exhaust and cat on at the time of the install is important. Also, did you install the header, drive the car for 50+ miles and then dyno, or was it a header install and immediate dyno?

I know it's lots of questions, but they are important, and I still would like to know. I just picked up a rick's header from a member on here. I'm going to install it and get it tuned by shawn church in a couple weeks.

I'm making the assumption that with berk's high flow cat and a 70mm invidia single exhaust and a tuned emanage ultimate I should be making more power and for longer ( maybe much closer up to 8700-9k rpms ) than the dyno on the website.

No one has run a test w/bolt ons after the header and a good tune ( not vafc ) from what i have found. It just seems people install the header and go get dynoed which limits the power output.

 

Will there be a price for a ceramic coating option on your website?

 

you don't need it....this header retains the heatshield.
