Mevi and Headers?

If you have a Mevi, then add Headers... wouldn't you gain much more getting the headers AFTER getting a Mevi as to NOT having a Mevi?

Mevi = How much of a gain?

Headers = How much of a gain?

Mevi + Headers = How much of a gain?

IF your going to get a MEVI, you MUST get an ECU with an upgraded rev limiter.. if not you'll be losing power.

Well the ECU is going to be installed with the MEVI.

By the way... whats a SAFE Red Line for a 95 VQ with the Mevi and ECU?

How much of a gain would headers give? Already got a Y Pipe and performance Cat, etc...

7200RPM is what most people go when they extend the rev limiter... you'll be just fine with the MEVI and ECU.

Headers will give you a good 5-7HP more than just a Y pipe.

Still just 5-7 gain with the MEVI? So then its really not worth the cash for the header...

headers sound nice, and they help give a nice highend flow, plus a better flow, but who cares they sound nice!!

If you have the money for a JWT ECU, headers, and MEVI then why don't you donate the $20 to be able to search and you can read thread after thread about headers and MEVI's

Nobody has answered his question though.

-how much hp & tq do you get with the mevi?
Peak hp vs. rpm would be nice

-mevi and headers combined?

Mike I know you had mevi, chip and all the goddies, what would you recommend.

thanks

Why all the wise cracks and no direct responses?

Search isn't free and if it was available I would search for it.
