Definitely needs to be done from underneath - the manifold connected to the midpipe.

Someone should really try a true dual on this car was done by RB on the FC. The rotary extreme exhaust seems like it could be modified to mate directly to an aftermarket header without too many headaches...

Redfox: all the work has to be done from underneath the car.
that freaking header is SUCH tight fit. No joke, it was the hardest thing in the world to get in place.
The problem is one of the runners comes out pretty far and getting the proper angle to put it in place is damn near impossible.
NgoRX8 is the man though! He was over helping with the install and got it to fit. Took a good 30-40 minutes to get in place.


Expect to spend at least a few hours on this install if you do it.

ah i would want to but headers are really expensive for 8's and heard they dont do much on performance cuz the stock headers do just as well new headers for 8's are more for sound but should throw you a few hp i think

Zumn: not sure what I'll put down on a dyno.
my car has always done really well (knocks on wood) in the past so I'm confident I'll break the 200 mark again.
210 would be amazing
215 is gonna be really hard without removing my Cat. I don't think it can be done without a midpipe. TeamRX8 did it with a 100cel high flow cat and a completely custom exhaust but we're talking $2k exhaust system here.
