still would like to see what Long Tube headers would do on the FWD VQ35. I mean it gave a 350z 310whp with light cams, and intake...

Hmmm maybe I'll have to buy a vq35 and do it myself... and

He was banned for a dispute with a mod over what seemed like nothing and he probably wont want to reply now. I would you?

Not necessarily sure if the ban was the best option, given the anticipation of so many members, in utilitarian terms.

In a sense, we have all be banned in a round-about way.

Well, a little update; datdude20 did get the headers installed, but that's all the information I have. I didn't hear any outright complaints, so who knows.

Can you possibly attempt to get him to reconsider contributing to the thread? We'd all really like to see his write-up.

i didnt put the headers on myself....i let my boy do them, i dropped the car off last thursday around 3:30pm and then they started working on the car around 4:30 and was done by 8:00 the same night
0
but as far as the install goes the only issues he had was relocating the the rear o2 sensor becuase the headers have a extra o2 bung for some odd reason..so he closed it wit one of his gadgets...(i dont know what it is but it works) and he moved the rear o2 behind the cat.......

as far as power goes all imma say is......

If you dyno on a Dynojet, could you ask them for the runfiles please? It would be nice to overlay the data over some runs from someone with Hotshots or Cattman.

Thanks. I'm curious to see how the power curves compare. Obviously, we won't be able to get runs from people with the exact same mods sans headers, but it might be a useful comparison nevertheless.
