Umm, sure it is....

 

So uhh.............did we ever get a video or sound clip?

 

naples, wut everyone is asking u to do is to take off ur headers, dyno it....put them bak on and keep track of how long it took to install them, and then dyno it again. to see the difference the headers made. (not sure but im guessing this mite not be possible given the y-pipe wont fit). but imagine it were possible they want u to realize that the gains from the headers isnt worth the install time. but i say, hey, it was $300 bucks, not too much more than a y-pipe, and maybe a few more horsepower than the y-pipe, and if u dont care about install time, its a bargain! some people like working on their cars and dont care how long it takes

 

Exactly!...I'll back you up anytime you need. And I HAVE THE SR HEADERS...lol

 

What i posted was a quote from the company that will be producing the next generation of Cattman headers. i have no way to validate those claims. it seemed very odd to me as well, but it is something to think about considering the company that produced the headers is located in New Zealand.

from personal experience i have only praise for Cattman products and service; i have their headers and catback on my car and i love them. i drove down to pick up my set the very same day the shippment arrived at their warehouse in Tucson (back when i lived in phoenix). the amazing sound of the equal length pipes was worth it in itself even if the headers had produced no gains (which we all know is far from the truth).


oh yeah, OBX headers are still worthless, no matter how much Naplesmax goes on about his 'gains'

 

Thats a Big F to the U. U want him to spend 3-4 hours removing them, then dyno, then put them back on,, and dyno again. , You'll must be crazy. I could of deleted this tread a long time ago. Why don't YOU go buy the headers, and do this, then YOU can help everyone out.

 

maximaspeed85
why dont you go do that seeing how you must have no life.

 

as long as the flex section is better than warpspeeds then they are ok


other than that the flow design looks alittle weird to.


get them sound clips i wanna hear it.

 

im going to take a video clip of it and joosdawg is going to work on it for me and post it

 

Good deal

 

i can take a video clip with my digital camera but when i play it back on the computer the sounds doesnt come out clear what should i do?

 

dont rev the **** out of it with the mic so close to the tip of the exhaust.

 

Off topic: Did your car ever get on a front end collission? Your front driver fender is noticably off from the rest of that side of the car.

 

no i've never had a front end collission its just the angle of the car and the sun i noticed in the picture it doesnt look right but if you look at the car in person its fine

 

whoa motherfu**ers, not ONCE did i say that i want u to do that, i dont care wut u do. y would u do that??? that Would be stupid, hence the second half of my post sayin **** it, keep em on and who cares. i was just tryin to help ur illiterate azz out by explaining to u wut everyone been trying to tell u for 5 pages. naples, u dont know know me, never will, u dont know how my life is. Peace bro

 

Why don't you learn how to spell then come talk to me.
After sounding like a ******* and now that you have proved nothing good bye


even spanishrice said the same thing about you

 

It's gonna sound like just any other maxima with unequal length exhaust. Maybe slightly raspier. I don't see what the big deal in hearing a clip is...

 

nismology you obviously dont know what you are talking about

 

I know exactly what im talking about n00b. Any maxima with with an unequal length path from each cylinder bank will have a tone that is one octave lower than the intake tone. This is due to the exhaust pulses colliding into each other at the collector due to the difference in velocities. The tone of your exhaust will be no different than of a car with a y-pipe. Equal length headers like the cattman and hotshot will have a distinctively higher pitched exhaust tone.

 

bullshyt

My friend has them on his, and they do NOT fit perfect by any means.

Did YOU install them?

 

Based on his past posts and contributions to this site in comparison to your so-called technical explanations thus far, I would have to say that he knows more than you.

Can't you just admit the fact that sometimes you can be wrong (heck, we all can be wrong) and deal with correction and constructive criticism in a more mature fashion instead of trying to look like a know-it-all?

 

there is nothing to admit i have headers and they added hp to my car what more do you want

 

iono bout that, stock 4th gen headers flow preety good, Id only change mind if i was going to do somn crazy

 

I bet most of u guys are hating cause you dont know the first thing about installing headers without a full detailed writeup with pictures, so instead u say they dont fit good and talk shhhht

If you dnt like headers , then dont buy them???

naples has a good set that fit good and gave his car HP.

 

this thread is just getting ridiculous, this never should have gotten to page 5 without some sort of gratifying information or praise. This should just be deleted.

 

Do you honestly think ignorant statements like this increase your level of credibility here on the org? The members above who are "hating" have contributed a lot more than you have and know exactly what they are talking about. The OBX headers have been proven to have fitment issues and until naples replies saying that he installed them himself with no problems, Im assuming its all BS. Also, like someone ahs already said. Spending $300 and an entire day installing some headers that will give maybe 2hp more than a $160 ypipe that takes 30 minutes max to install is NOT worth it. I cant understand how people giving their opinion and defending it is considered "hating".
