Default New Header Option for D-Series

ex-DC sales manager has emerged with this new line called Strup Performance Upgrades...this is a demo unit, the first production run, however, i believe he is going to use a segmented technique for the bends, not unlike titanium, however, these bends look awesome...



full t304 stainless INCLUDING the flanges. Made in the USA>



I will install this unit soon enough. Pricing is still in the air, however, should be extremely competitive...



(sorry about pic quality, took them for impromptu aim conversation, i will take more detailed ones soon)

Looks like a standard 4-2-1. Anything else different? Not trying to hate, just need more info other than it looks good.

I'm really wishing someone would make a good quality 4-1 for the D series with a decent sized collector at the end. (2.5")

it is a standard 4-2-1, with 1 5/8 primaries and what look to be 1, however, the advantages at this point are the higher quality T304, including the flanges and the price..list is $395.00, vs DC who's MSRP on the compareable part number HHS5513b is $565.00...that is a phenominal difference considering the Strup piece has better material.

also, compare the Strup unit to the now defunct Apexi GT manifold pictured here-

hehe...Endyn likes these, they can't be that bad...but I see what you mean; the material choice could be better. Ceramic coated mild steel does not like alot of parts of North America

Sure, they're great for supercharger set ups, but that's about it.
