Looks like a very smart solution to get the length and a cat. Any plans to make a longer race header now?

This is the issue with the name "long tube" headers the inference is that longer is better. Longer is better to a point, but there's a limit to it...
They should be more appropriately called "tuned length" headers as that's what's really going on. You're tuning the length of the primary, steps, diameter etc. to get the expansion waves that occur at each time the tubing changes diameter or merges, to get back to the cylinder when the intake valve opens so that you're pulling air forcefully into the cylinder...
You want them just long enough, but not too long...
Lots of data to get through. We learned a lot about how sensitive the RS is on the dyno, I'm going to get the data compiled and put up for everyone about this hopefully over the weekend!

All the race headers we had in stock are sold, 2 installed locally, and 1 shipped to AZ...
Will be 4-5 weeks best case before we have more... and honestly only guys that are selling their cars let the race headers go. They're that good.

I know where the ones going to AZ are going to....
I wasn't consistent with the graphs and it can be confusing, For the GT3 graphs the headers are the solid line and the stock runs are the dashed line. For the RS it's reversed, headers are dashed line and stock is solid line. Sorry for the confusion. When I get a sec I'll try to fix it so it's consistent...
Please make sure to see our other post on our study on the US spec RS'

Looks great Jamie. You guys should run the 991 GT3/RS Race headers up on the same dyno now and update your site with the new traces to keep everything consistent...
What loss factor are your predicting for the Dynapak? 15%.
Also, am I correct in pointing out that the catted system does not include the valves for switching the exhaust in and out below 4000 rpm?

Thanks Mark!, we did run the Race headers can see the results in the other thread we did, site is in the midst of being updated. I'll likely keep the Dynojet trace of the 991 GT3 we did way back as it's got mileage...
Dynapak 4000 is about 15%, we get 400whp for the 991 GT3, advertised BHP is 468HP SAE corrected, which get's us to about 14.5% loss
The Street (catted) also has valves so it's quite low key around town.
Picture below has it (bypass pipe is missing as the picture was taken during fitment)
