Default Fabspeed 964 Turbo Header Package

Fabspeed wants to remind everyone who owns a Porsche 964 Turbo of our Header package thats available. Our Headers are intended for track or street use and are designed for maximum power and Torque. The package consists of our T304SS Headers with or without heat, Drip accumulator with double swivels, Aeroquip lines with all adapters and hardware included. The Headers will eliminate the 39 LB Stock failure prone Header and replace it with our 17.5 Lb Fabspeed Header to maximize weight reduction with the least amount of restriction and backpressure. The C2 Turbo is a car that requires a much less restrictive header so the Turbo comes on faster, sooner and makes the car much happier and responsive. If you are looking for new headers for your track car or street car that saves lots of weight and makes ultimate horsepower this is the option you want.

• Fits All 964 Turbo cars 1990-1994
Makes a 38 Horsepower and 27 FT. Lbs of Torque Increase to the wheels with the Fabspeed Header & Dual Outlet Muffler Package on a 930 Turbo.
• Saves 22.3 lbs from the rear of your 964 Turbo and makes the car will feel much stronger and responsive.
• Full bolt-on installation including all hardware, Gaskets and Oil lines.
• Strongest and finest high performance race system available for all C2 Turbo street, race and DE event cars worldwide.
• 14 - 16 gauge T304 Stainless Steel- Much stronger, better quality and guaranteed to be the finest quality in the Industry. Uses CNC Mandrel bent primary tubes and Lost Wax Cast Stainless steel merge collectors for maximum flow.
• Replaces the stock failure prone headers with new High flow Fabspeed headers that have a lifetime warranty and produce Horsepower and substantially reduces Turbo lag.
• 964 Turbo Header Package Video (http://www.fabspeed.com/911Turbo_930C2Turbo.html)

B&B always needed modified oil piping. Is it all done on the Fabspeed?

What are the numbers for a 3.3 964? HP and torque?
What's the difference between B&B and the Fabspeed product?
Does it impact one's ability to pass state inspections? I live in NY.

Thanks in advance for your feedback!

I saw these headers in person; I was not impressed with the welds compared to a B&B system.

Just got an email from a local friend; here's how it read:

"Give me a call I got a set of Fabspeeds headers for the 91 C2 turbo having nothing but one fitment problem after another need some input to see I can get things to work."

This is feedback that in my opinion should be public access...

Saw them at Hershey... The guy came off like he didn't really want to talk, or assumed that I didn't know what I was looking at, so I walked away..

Funny part is I was actually asked to purchase headers for a friends 964 Turb.. I did... just not from FabSpeed. Wrong attitude,

Oh and tell Kenny McNeil I said hey.. and I still running a set of his original design.. love'em!

Surprised that they didn't respond to my question. The common problems with headers are:
fitment,
leaks,
oil/heater pipe mods,
quality of welds.

B&B maybe best of a bad bunch, but most important is get them fitted by someone who knows what they are doing, period.

Hi, sorry for the delay in responding guys, we have been really busy at Fabspeed with new cars and projects, so I have been on and off the Dyno the last few days, so my apology for the delay. Thanks to everyone who came out to Porsche swap meet at Hershey, I am getting some great feedback from members and all the people that came out about our stand and quality of service.
Thanks again everyone

K964, if you can round up 3 or more buyers, I would offer a Group Buy for $2100, so let me know if you are interested in the $200 savings. We have everything in stock and ready to ship, just let me know if the car is a 930 or C2 turbo, so my fabricators can make the proper changes for the two models, because they are different on the turbo mounting point.

Tasracer, that is correct they are two different cars, but they are both single Turbo charged cars, so the horsepower and torque output will be similar. Also, the 930 used a smaller turbo then the newer C2 Turbo which used a large K27 Turbo for more power, so if anything the car will make more power all around. The factory headers are failure prone and will need to replaced down the road, so why not replace them with something that makes power, fits perfectly and is the highest quality system out there.

Bklyn964, we have not had a car to run the header kit on a C2 Turbo, so let me know if you are interested and we would love to install the full system on your car in house and Dyno test it for numbers. The system will not affect emissions at all since you are just replacing the factory headers which does not affect the catalytic converter. Our systems are made from T304 16 gauge stainless steel and use state of the art technology like the merge collectors and cast stainless parts for the least amount of restriction, backpressure and to eliminate breaking and cracking. Our parts are covered by a lifetime warranty and designed fit like stock with no issues or problems. We also include everything with the system like the oil lines, drip accumulator, double swivels and all adapters.

911 Addict, sorry for not responding sooner, but yes we include all parts with our headers, Oil lines, swivels, hardware and gaskets. The headers are all pulse tig welded in the fixture which leaves the cleanest and uncontaminated weld to insure strength and durability of the weld.

Thank you,

dholling13, I apologize for the problem your friend is having and I am glad you are bringing it our attention. I am 100% sure that one of our shipping guys may have accidentally sent him the 930 headers which have different mounting points to the turbo, so that is why he is having the issues. Please PM or email me his contact information so I can find his order and contact him about the problem and we will send the correct items to him and get it rectified. He should have no issues installing this system at all. Let me know if anyone has any other questions and please have him contact me via email or give me a call directly at 215-646-4945 and we will get it all handled.
Thanks,

Do you have any pictures you could post showing the Fabspeed system on a 964 turbo with muffler and waste gate exhaust pipe, given that the 964 has twin bumper openings for the (muffler and waste gate) exhaust and the pipes exit straight back as opposed to the slightly angled exit of the 1989 and prior 911 turbo exhaust?

Hi Bucking, we have not had the opportunity of a 964 Turbo come into the shop to do the header installation yet so we dont have any photos of that car with the system. Let me know if you know anyone who is interested in the headers system and would like to have it installed in our shop for a full write up with photos and videos. Let me know if you have any other questions.
Thanks,
