Re: [DML] New Exhaust headers



Hm, this makes me wonder if Houston or Hervey have "tuned" their 
headers. Exhaust pressure is easy to check, so I don't see why not.

You can check your exhaust pressure yourself if you want. Take out your 
oxygen sensor and stick a pressure-tapping tool in the bung. I think 
(and my memory may be faulty) that the general rule of thumb is that it 
should be no greater than 2psi at 2500rpm.
