Fast Intentions Long Tube Headers are here!

I appreciate the support. I feel that people that do not know one way or the other can be easily persuded. But when I see the wrong information being put out there I have to step in and set the record straight. What makes it worse is when it is being said by a reputable shop. When you design a product and post results you have to be as honest as possible. If you lie or hide things the facts it will eventually make it's way out. Now I am not saying GTM is doing this on purpose. There was a boost leak and the head unit may just be too small. This was done on there entry level stage one kit. On top of that my headers didn't exist when there R&D started on the kit. However it is not like no one will ever do an independent dyno. As soon as I can, I will get my hands on a car with a Stillen kit and show what our headers can
do. That V3 head unit they use is a quality part. As long as the air to water intercooler is efficent things will work out in the positive column.

I would love to see a comparison of a car with the Stillen kit tuned with stock headers and cats vs LTH's with a retune.

Sadly, I think you really have to do this in order to clear your name. People believe what they read and right now there is a lot being written that LTH's will not work with a supercharger even though Tony said they would. Nevermind the fact that superchargers have worked better with less restrictive exhausts for the past century, now things have magically changed for the VQ37VHR. I think that getting your hands on a well tuned supercharged 3.7L and doing a back to back study of restrictive vs unrestrictive exhaust would force the others to answer some questions. I would leave the cat-back the same in order to eliminate variables and tune each combo for their best performance. And it looks like you would have to use a Stillen kit as it looks like this is the only supercharger that is out right now that can push enough air.

To be honest with everyone else, I have no intention of buying LTH's. I have a set of hfc's and a set of Stillen headers in the basement that I believe would work real well for me. I got both the headers and the hfc's used and cheap. My reason for posting is because someone is putting out bad information about a supercharger needing backpressure in order to run efficiently. That is simply not true.

yIt is sad and true. You better be careful. Some people will chop your nuts off if you say anything bad about GTM not that it matters and most of those people are not that bright when talking about the mechanics of cars. Some people have buy into Bull**** when they dont understand and they are having issues with there setup.

I agree, however I admittingly was one of those who were big GTM S/C supporters. I have my LTH's at home and looking them over I can't say they look anything short of brilliant. The N/A installs also back up everything that Tony is saying and I'm sure it'll change the sound of my stock exhaust (test pipes on right now).

I guess we'll have to give it some more time and let the tuners figure out what they are doing but one thing is very clear, you cannot expect to keep on oem headers and cats with a power adder and keep it reliable in the long run.
