Nice work there Psycho. Congrats on the FFE torqueguru.

I have gained phenomenal increase in torque and a very notable increase in power at about 4000 rpm upwards.
Is that a street spec' or a rally spec header ?How often are you driving at 4k rpm within the city limits. I don't intend to nitpick here, but am curious to know this helps in city driving.I rarely find a chance to go above 3500 rpm with the city's lousie traffic.

Hi Rj,
Its a spec where the torque gone up massively and that surely has made city driving much more simple. I am not a heavy revver too in the city. Like i mentioned, for city driving i feel its thumbs up the way this header set up was done for me. So that makes it a street spec? I guess so.

Regards,
TG.

A street spec header would increase the low and mid range where as a rally spec header would increase the top range. As the driveability in city has improved, I guess this is a street spec.

I also got confused with the statement that the power mainly comes in after 4000 rpm.

Well to be more precise at 3500 rpm itself i can feel it kicking in, but at 4000 it just pulls baby pulls!

@patiencewins - Well I am not sure, but from what I can gather I guess you are spot on.

Very nice headers there TG, those chromed headers look good but does chroming serve any other purpose apart from enhancing the looks?

One question for Psycho since exhaust gas is not exactly below the speed of sound nor smooth in its flow so s so what kind of computational flow dynamics do you use for finding out the measurements of these headers.

Well, chroming is for the look of it. I am a cleanliness freak, I like things nice n clean, I regularly wipe my engine bay with a cloth...thus even after over a year my engine bay is kinda neat...
