Just recieved my dougs d450 headers Wowwww

If you open up the exhaust you lose a little low end torque but gain high end power. I was going to go 1 7/8 headers and 3" exhaust, but I wanted the low end power that this car was built for. I talked with TTi and they said at 650hp and better they recommend 1 7/8 and 3". So, depending on what you are putting out, make your decision accordingly.

well that answers that question about a larger collector I assume too. larger collector may take some torque away.. and 273 's don't have much to begin with LOL. I will leave that 2.5 collector alone then. I'll be running 2.5 head pipes to the muffs anyway. 2.25 tails.
