Nope. I may take it to Valdosta and do it though.

I have begun to think a thread isn't truly dead until I post in it and kill it. There, now it's dead.

just so you guys know...in this bolt on specific area...little88 and I had a discussion about little-lack of gain (my opinion, not his) of longtubes on a bolt on blower car (not talking NA...talking FI). stock cam profile, bolt on a blower. I have cat deletes, which I think are pretty darn close to what longtubes would gain on a car already tuned well with a blower. I posted a year or so ago for proof from someone with dyno charts of a gain before and after...I got nothing. No shops, nothing. The only graphs posted had other things changed, or pullied down, or retuned.
So...the point of this post:
I am a Pfadt suspension fan...so I pm'd an offer to Pfadt to test the new tri-y's on my car and said basically if they provided the headers I would cover the dyno time and post up before after. Their header design makes me think there could be a torque gain on a blown car still. But I'm guessing. It would be legit, Rhino is the guy that tunes on my car...so folks here would know everything is on the level.
I'd guess they won't take me up on my offer...I wish they would though. Not just for me...but for a lot of folks.
I figure I may be down 10whp or so for not having headers and just running JBA cat deletes...but look at the $! Money difference says...nah, I'll keep rolling what I have and see you at the track and see what comes of it.

For the record, I had tx speed longtubes on my other camaro ss back in 09. It was NA, and with a tune, yes it made a noticeable gain.

416/ported heads/headers I think would do the trick. For a while that was my set up and it was WELL over 500 on a mustang jet. Your TRQ numbers will probably match your HP numbers

How do we feel about "selfies" (as per thehamp) in the signature pics? Cause there is one out there that cracks me up.
