I am currently looking for HEADERS out there for my SC Vortech set up on my 84.5 fully built bottom end. This is my daily driver which put down 385 whp and 245 wtq @ 16.7 lb on Church Dynapack. I should be putting out more with the GSR head that is being work on by BLUEPRINT with stage 3 port. I don't want to spend alot for those headers and have to wait 3 to 4 weeks for it. I heard Kamikaze is good, what do you guys think. Personally, I was gonna go with SKUNK2 Megaflow. Clearance and fitman is importance because again this is a daily driver. Any input will be much appreciated,

 

hey check out th tri-y headers that are for sale on here they flow very well and are pretty cheap, and they have really good clearance, with S/C setupps i have always been told that whatever will help a NA engine build will help a S/C setup

 

Have you looked into the lht header 1-727-344-1800 awesome piece no fitment issues quality stuff

 

i went with the kidracing narrow header and had the local exhaust shop convert it to a true 3" exit, i havnt had a chance to install the vortech set-up and tune it just yet but i am very happy with the header and feel it should perform quite well

for your-setup id imagine something larger than most n/a headers would be ideal', thats why i chose to have it converted to a 3" exit and jet coated but i dont have the vortech kit fully installed/tuned just yet

care to share more on your vortech set-up? what kind of pulley configuration are you running to make that much boost?

 

What setup are you running? and thats impressive numbers i wonder why the vortech pumps out more numbers than the jrsc?

 

Thanks for the input on the headers guys. At this point I believe I'm gonna go with S2 Megapower, since they did beat rmf narrow headers on the dyno.
My set up to get over 16 lbs is the use of the crank pulley from GSR to LS, and currently I'm using CRV crank pulley , of course with the aid of power cooler ( water to air).
Here is my set up.
Gsr block with 84.5mm AEBS sleeved
9-5 cp pistons
crower rods
stock Gsr crankshaft
B16 head with BC springs and retainers (titanium).old setup.
itr cams
AEM cam gears
550 RC injectors
Hondata 4 bars map
70 mm blox tb
Edlebrock Victor x intake manifold. (old setup).
4-1 ceramic coated DC headers with 2.5
walbro 255 fuel pump
Ebay 3" exhaust
I'm sure I forgot something.

 

mpg on this set up???

 

were you able to keep a/c with the larger crank pulley? just curious im about mid-install on my set-up and just curious, im running the stock R pulley but with the smallest vortech pulley so i believe ill be around 10psi, i have a crv crank pulley which ive been told will yeild around 15psi but im on a stock R motor so im sticking with the 10psi set-up anywho'

keep me posted on your results if you dont mind'

im sure that header will work well for you

 

With a full tank of 91 octane, my best were less than 200 miles.
I don't have ac in my car. I'm sure you can leave ac in there with different size belt. I go for HP so I deleted mine, and you can feel the difference w/o ac.
I will keep you guys posted with the new setup.

 

i have a custom pulley set up and same exact set up with minor changes.
ported polished b16 head
wiseco 9-5-1
jg race mani
jg intake mani also
81mm bore
water to air. problem im having is building more boost
i wanna know if the cooler air temp is helping build more boost up top

 

 

as u see im using a custom pulley setup on the blower but boost is the issue

 

whats the intake air temp on ya motor while tuning

 

youll love the jg edelbrock pro series race header

 

Nice setup. How much boost are you running exactly?

 

as he said in the original post "385 whp and 245 wtq @ 16.7 lb"

 

Cool set up. Do you have a dyno graph you can post?

 

pass 20 psi but i need to find a away to rev safely pass 9100 to make more boost

 

i will post dyno sheets after the retune

 

what are u revving ya motor to?

 

most recent setup

 

yOu drive around with the heater pipe like that?

I hope those arent brass fittings into the intake.

 

20 psi You drive this every day?
I rev mine to 9000.

 

Dam thats a nice setup except whats up with the top radiator hoses????

 

I drive my car daily but I load to maps one for the street one to race
