Interest in headers for the n52. Post to show interest and have these developed

I know someone who was talking about making them but wants to know if there is enough demand. So pls post if you're interested and I'll forward him the link to this thread. I know there's speculation over whether or not any real hp gains would happen esp since RRT didn't change their headers on their track car but it'd be a nice option and worth a look into.

What company are you trying to get to make us some headers? There's been a few companies who tried but failed... the only headers out are the ss. Sorry for the bring down but just being realistic. But if you can make it happen im in.

I'm in. Just don't make me have to wait a year or else I'll just get the SS.

Please keep us posted.

Thanks.

OBX has headers, Raceland is making some, both are cheap.

youd have to be able to compete with the mass production from tiawan that are now becoming available..

As long as they are catless, there will be at least +15hp at wheels. I would possibly be interested.

they haven't said anything new about their headers. Don't think anyone wanted to drop $1000 on unproven headers to be a guinea pig

no one has Obx on their n52 yet to my knowledge. And again it's all about options and hp and pricing. Your tune is a great option for the n52 and give ppl something other than LET and PBX to consider before picking one to buy

if you can do o2 sims and ensure there is a proper fitting header for the 2.5L engine n52 then count me in.

My warranty dies soon. I'm interested. Probably do a custom exhaust to match to it at the same time.
