I see alot of people doing the header/up-pipe combo at AHQ lately. What performance gains should one be seeing with this combo?

I'd say on avg, you'll see about 10-12 whp and 20-30 wtq gains. When I did headers I was able to feel the gains. Its more the torque than the power. It won't be as big of a gain as a tbe and tune though. Hope that helps.

Thanx for your input on this because I have heard differing opinions on headers in general.

Did you tune for headers?

I got retuned for headers, but you'll feel the gains even before the tune.
