Hey ****, have you had any slipping from the Skunk Upper A Arms?

 

looks g00t!
thanks for the pix

 

I've had the prototype on for a while, but it was just spray painted black. I had it on the second day of the last NASA event (when Dave drove down to VIR and helped fit it), and I also ran it during Speedtrial. This is the final prototype header and exhaust. I believe Dave is ready for production models, though don't quote me on that.

No slipping from those arms. I've checked after each run.

The header is coated by Airborn in North Carolina. Dave sends them out there to get coated as the final step.

nice oil pan, matches the bodywork y0.......bling bling

 

Ist goot ya.....is it me or is your lower tie bar bent?

 

Yeah. Not the only thing that's bent.

I'll replace it just as soon as someone buys me a new one.

Warren

 

Nice!

 

That wouldn't happen to have been a result of Miata biproducts, would it?

No, you have to actually crash to bend that rear tiebar.

Warren

 

Very sweeeeeeet.

 

You don't have any issues with the primary O2 wiring getting burnt located right next to the collector?Good stuff

 

I ran 2 weekends at the track like this, with no problems. You can't tell from the pic, but it is zip tied in 2 places, just enough so that it doesn't dangle around too much.

what size is that piping.. looks really small... i guess it really dont matter huh, cuz there's not much for the exhaust to travel...

 

how loud is the exhaust?

 

Looks really good, Warren. What length resonator did you go with? It looks like it dumps right before the first bend in the b-pipe. Did you specify a length, or did you just make it fit? I assume it's quiet enough to run at most tracks?

Bee-you-tee-full!

 

Have you ever seen a Sms header in person? The primary's and secondaries are huge compared to any prduction header. Your probably looking at them compared to the exhaust and thinking that. I would almost bet its a 2.5 system.

 

The exhaust itself is a full 2.5" diameter. Doesn't get much bigger than that on these cars The resonator is a straight through 18" Magnaflow.

As for sound, this is a race only exhaust. My car is trailered to tracks. It is definately loud. Loud enough so that you have to wear earplugs on the track. It's a race car after all. It's quieter than an open stock header, but not by too much, if that helps.

If you want to hear the race exhaust, you can grab the VIR video from my sig, and turn it up. Dave can make exhausts from either full blown race applications to street driven setups, which almost pass for stock.

Looked like it has as good of ground clearance as the 4-2-1 header!! I like!!!

 

looks good

 

interesting muffler placement

 

Jeff: The only choice for racers

George: It wasn't that late... We were doing a little R&D on other variations, and only in a parking lot And yeah, of course I towed!
