AO, I hope you hit the elusive 500HP number but what are your thoughts about loosing power on a supercharged car when adding headers?

THis will allow me to put a smaller pulley on to regain the boost level and thus increase total horsepower.
Again this is all speculation. Will find out later in the spring when I get back tot he dyno.

Picked up the car today and OMG!!!! It sounds so awesome. Almost silent while cruising, then BWWWWAAAAAAA! I'm in love again.
2.5" stainless mandrel bent with Magnaflow mufflers. The combination with the headers is just pure music!
Then I get it home and notice my oil cooler is leaking!
I'm pretty sure I used the wrong sized o-rings... ![banghead](https://rennlist.com/forums/graemlins/banghead.gif)
Pics. Crappy video coming later.

Is the rear muffler a dual straight through or any crossing over in that one?
Looks very nice, cannot wait to see / hear it and compare the numbers.

Straight through. I looked at doing some of the fancy stuff, but then thought why. Just more crap that I might not be happy with.
It's very civilized, yet lets out a nice howl when you get on it. It's perfect.

Too early to say for sure. I only had time to drive it back from the shop. Need to clean up a few things and wait for a nicer day to go for a drive.
My plan is to go to the dyno with the current pulley see what it does, Then install the ludicrous-speed pulley (2.125") and then go straight to plaid (2.0"). I plan on documenting fully.

Maybe this guy could do a setup for me when I install the MSDS headers? Did he do the X-pipe for you, too?

Oh yeah... he can do it. No problem. The X was part of the total fabrication. I only supplied him with the mufflers and the flanges to mate up with the headers.

Looks fantastic Andrew, well done.
