Exhaust Question
I have no doubt there are many opinions on this board about exhaust systems. My question concerns switching from "true headers" like CMI to a more dependable Stainless Marine Gen 3 manifold system. Around a 1000 horsepower..........any performance loss?????

If Supercharged (especially postive displacement), engines care less about tuning lengths and ID's than Naturally Aspirated. They, however, want as least restrictive as possible with sizes 'within reason.'

Interesting comments. 1/2 the price and no disadvantages. Seems to good to be true. Yes, I can come by tomorrow. Actually have a pair coming to see if they fit in between the 2 engines ok. Just ordered them this afternoon. If you have a pair maybe I can call first thing in the morning and tell them not to send out. Save some time and money.

Well I don't know about the runner length being equal, but CMI is pretty much the only game in town for headers these days aren't they?

Stainless yes. Aluminum I think the Thunder and lightning are a much better setup. Diamond Performance bought the molds from KE. Although they look hideous I believe they are the best performing exhaust on the market. I'm happy with the Stailess Marine Gen 3's but if I had it to do over again I would probably go with the Thunder and lightning's. Some want the bling of the CMI's but me personally I wish my hatch would never have to come open.
