Doug Thorley header question. Is it Worth it?

[RustyAb]

Hey guys, so I’ve read a bunch of posts on here about these headers and I’m just wondering if someone can chime in with experience.

Like a lot of ppl, I’m looking for a bit more power for towing my small holiday trailer. Has anyone else added these for similar reasons? Any regrets? Other thoughts are that I might as well chip in and go straight to the SC kit... which oddly enough the wife said she didn’t mind me forming over for that.. Anyways, thanks if anyone chimes in.

Just the headers? Not worth it.

Maybe if you go change intake and exhaust also the butt dyno might give you couple HP.

I’ve got a Borla catback, and the p/o had an afe CAI on already..

Headers on any modern car will not give you much extra without a dyno tune.

Usually a PITFA to install anyways.

If you are going supercharger and a full tune I say do it. If not just save yourself the headache.

Drive a little slower and enjoy the scenery on your trips. Save the money for other family things.

If you had a late 60s Chevelle it may help, but with our fat heavy mid size T4s and two catalytic converters it may not be worth it. Sounds good but the Doug Thorley stickers would look better on a Chevelle too.
