Ive got an SDJ header w/ hooley, and its a straight pipe exhaust right now.... Havent had much of a chance to take it over 4k rpms because its deafening, yes, even with the windows up, and music full blast

Ok Got a Raptor ($25
) muffler at the end of the straight pipe which comes off the SDJ header AND...
I should admit that this is on a 12A with a Holley (I didnt see that this thread was for 2nd gens at first) but regardless, its still an SDJ header. I finally got to open it up
There is a good but not a tremendous amount of low end torque, but enough that you do not need to use the gas when you let off the clutch (it always died stock)
I will say that the engine is pretty much asleep until 3000rpms, starts to wake up then is fully awakened at 4500. From 4500 to 7500 in gear is like riding a jolt of lightning!! IT keeps pulling stong at 7500 like it will pull harder through 9000rpms, but I dont want to do that with out a much more upgraded oil and cooling system, plus hardened gears. Temptation is so hard to resist!!
I swear putting the header on must have taken at least 2 seconds off my 0-60mph time!
Its slightly quicker from idle to 3000rpms over stock. I have not had any ecperience with an RB header to compare it to. But if it kcks this much more ***, imagine what itll do on all of 'yall 13b's. That a whole extra 10 cu. in. of madness!!
