Headers, CBE, HFCS

Stoney · 01-23-2014, 09:15 AM

I was just thinking about something I want to do, but want to make sure it will work. I currently have a borla CBE and I want to put on Berk HFCs and stillen short tube headers, WILL IT FIT , when they go to install? Because I know the xyz pipe won't fit with berk HFCs. Thanks for the help!!

So you're still considering the Stillen headers I see

Yes, I know it may not be worth it, but any gain is better than no gain, and long tubes are illegal. And I just want a full setup!

Fast intentions will make you a catback with HFCs in it so you can run their long tubes and still be legal. That's a far better hp/$ ratio for the same install cost.

Already have a borla catback, I'm under aged, my mom restricts me on things I can do , she said I can do headers and high flow cats as long as my setup is legal, and she won't let me do weight restriction things.

They're illegal. I guarantee it

Wow. Then go spend your money on headers that will cost a fortune to install and will make zero power. We've explained it to you over and over. I guess the only thing that will convince you is being out a lot of money and a dyno sheet showing no gains.

Now it's starting to all make sense...

Why not the z1 headers? Z1 headers will require a 350z HFC but it fits and should give you some power gains

Because I'm kind of nervous about putting 350z HFCs on it, and I want either stillen or berk HFCs , since I've heard good things about both and like the way they sound, also the z1s are a little bit out of my price range.

Berk makes 350z cats you could use with Z1 headers

Everybody told u to leave the stock headers alone, not worth it. U probably get better gain from upgraded intake manifold vs stillen shorty.

Then why did you ask? I second everyone else that it is a waste of your money...
