    back when my car was dyno tuned(a crappy one at that) car made 242hp and 266tq. this was with 200k miles. 3.4 with4*knock, 4 fwi, linda ported tb. plog , ubend delete no cat stock d/p. now, since that crappy dy no, i've added 3" d/p no cat and a 3.5 pulley vs. 3.4.... no mabe 1* kr and that s all. question is: do headers make that much more torque vs. plog and similar mods. thats roughly 30, 40 and 50lbs more with like/similar mods!!! i gotta get some freakin headers

    headers will move your powerband up in the RPM range, but overall if youve got the right pulley and timing you wont notice at all since the overall power of the car will be GREATLY increased.
