Vektor Performance - Performance Headers
#181
About manifold temps and the ECU cutting power. If running these headers on a car with stock programming, stock cats, stock center muffler, are the temps going to the turbo a lot hotter and therefore more likely to result in a loss of power on this 3.0 platform, via an ECU response? I was confused about that in a brief reference to the ECU responding to high temp.

We have not been keeping these on the shelf, but have some some unspoken for headers that will be in-stock soon. Stay ahead of the spring rush! :P

I’m a very happy Vektor customer. The equal length exhaust pulse is pure bliss. The quality is gorgeous.
Hit me up if you want to talk through install in real-time. It’s not hard. Happy to assist.

I had a ton of fun installing these headers.
Driver side is a conundrum regardless of brand as Porsche’s headers and packaging are junk.
Replacing them with Vektor headers is immensely satisfying. And it’s not hard once you talk to folks who’ve done it.

3D machined flange and hand porting. You'll never see it on the car, but you'll know it's there, contributing to your power induced smile

Want the utmost in performance optimization?
The cast rotary firing-order high velocity merge collector is the performance showpiece of our headers. Creating equal flow and scavenging performance across all cylinders, unlike a flat collectors. Cast in the USA from thick walled stainless steel, it is flow optimized. and very durable. Part of the reason we've never had a single header failure to date, regardless of the performance demands.

What's in a material?
We're unique in that we use 321 Stainless Steel over the more common 304.
321 Stainless Steel is alloyed with Titanium. While this does add significantly to the material and manufacturing cost, it also provides superior strength at higher operating temperatures making it an ideal material for higher performance turbocharged applications.
