Thread: the stainless 16v header build

    4 into 2 into 1 are supposedly best for a road car - better spread of torque,
    or at least that's what I've heard. 4 into 1 (I think) can give you more power, they need to be tuned carefully, because they come in at over a narrow band of RPM.
    Maybe dubstarmk2 might like to comment on this...

    Name your price and you can see how they go on my car!

    Seriously though, that is some amazing work. Whats the go with the RHD exit on the muffler? What is the thinking there, I may need to head to your thread to check out what you were planning. (or you bolted it up back to front! )

    Did I mention I notched the sill so it sits nice and high a tight, and made my take on arch spats that double as heat shields
