New dyno numbers AFTER Headers!!!

Some of you may remember my other thread about trying (against most everyones advice) a G6X3 cam without upgrading to long tube headers. I thought it would be ok, not great numbers, but not horrible. I was wrong.
The car dynoed 412 hp before the cam and 422 hp after the cam. It was very dissappointing but I knew it was a chance I was taking, trying to save the money on the headers.
My car now has a set of 1 7/8 long tubes and has been retuned. Now for the new numbers.

All mods the same between pulls except headers and cats (CAI intake, solo cats, x pipe, flowmasters, dyno tune)

BEFORE headers 422hp / 408tq

AFTER headers 465hp / 422tq

I can't express enough thanks to Jon at http://www.oversteeringonline.com
and XS Power for responding to emails on Sat & Sun and getting my headers to me Wed so I could get things done.

Aslo a huge thanks to Ron and the crew at Vengeance Racing http://www.vengeancerd.com for getting my car in on very short notice and getting things retuned for me before Pony Wars!

The car now runs like it should and I am expexting some very good ET's this weekend.

So to anybody thinking of doing what I did by not getting headers..........
DON"T DO IT !!!!!!!
