Header Questions
I'm thinking of getting headers and need some feedback. I have an A6 and SLP LM II axle-back. Plan on getting the ADM CAI.
1. Will the stock exhaust (excluding mufflers) have too much back pressure to notice any improvement from headers alone? 2. How much of an increase in exhaust sound should I expect? The increase in sound is not a issue just would like to have an idea. Someone had mentioned that the increase is sound from headers would be minimal. 3. Are there headers that will bolt directly to the stock exhaust flange? Getting a tune is driving these questions. Thanks for the input.

Missile, If you chose to use our headers and high flow cats only, they'll bolt right up to you existing mid section. It will liven up the sound a touch at idle and cruise. I'll come on stronger when you're rowing through the gears. If you want nothing short of the best performance results, go with our system complete. Combined with you axle back it should sound great as well.

Are the SLP LMII 2.5" pipes and exhaust? SLP's website says it is a 3" madrel bend system, but the parts lists calls everything 2.5" diameter. I'm looking at a very similar set-up as the OP. I'm leaning toward ARH, no other headers have shown to make as much power and I love the sound of the LMIIs.

Every photo of the AR's and SLP's headers shows what appears to be header to axel system. My question is $1800 for AR's is that for header to axel or just header & cat.

K. Now just got to figure out what is the best axel back system. I want it to sound cool, but not stupid loud. Ted what's your pick ARH's or SLP's and correct part #.

You might want to go with Magnaflow street series (with mufflers). Stay away from the muffler delete systems. I know that Magnaflow is one of the more quiet exhausts and used with headers by many because of that. You will still have a loud aggressive exhaust, but it won't be "stupid loud." |
