Here is a picture of the headers between the race on the LEFT and the Street on the RIGHT

 

Eeny meenie miney mo ...

 

actually "mo" is being built tomorrow

it's the custom header for the 2.0L stroker TVS

 

woohoo TVS or turbo conversion? which one will cost more?

 

once we get the smaller TVS it will be much cheaper to do the TVS

 

Jan,

Could you please give us a breakdown on both of these headers - here in this dedicated thread.

Things that would help not only myself, but I am sure others.
Things like - Catalytic options, O2 Sensor Location, Modifications needed to make work, Intended use / desired power-band characteristics, Noise.

I know most of the answers, but it will save everyone from asking you over and over again and will be in one nice easy to find/search place.

 

Jan is the race header fit on the JCW exhaust ? also why there isn't flex joint?

 

+1 I'm curious to know all the answers to the above as well!

 

I've got the street header and really like it. I can comment on a couple of the previous questions. SENSOR LOCATION: when installing the header it appeared that the sensor location was very close to the stock location. MODIFICATIONS NEEDED TO INSTALL: I had to clearence a few of the heat shields underneath the car, mainly for the sensor to clear. And last NOISE: It is considerably louder than stock, around town and under 3k Rpm it's no problem over that she gets loud in a hurry. I personally love it and wouldn't change it. Thats just my .02. Hope that helps.

 

the cylinder head makes the noise much more progessive as much more air is now going through the engine

I will put together something for the thread and put it in the original post

 

What are the prices for each?

 

Jan

I hope you have lots of time to explain your headers to everyone. Should take about a page or two. See if anyone has a picture of both installed. All I know is they work better than any on the market bar none. My number's prove this out. 219hp @ the wheel with header ,exhaust and cam on a stock JCW motor.

 

I think your track days show the doubting types even more

 

Man, if I only had the cash for that street header...

BTW, I have a couple used/warranty O2 sensors if you still need them, PM me your mailing address.

 

done... thanks

 

PM sent.

 

***Drooling at the race header***
***Just like Wayne in Wayne's World***
"One day it will be me mine....oh yes."


--->Jan: The race header has a 2.5" v-band flange, right?

Keep up the good work!
Cheers,
Ryan

 

Jan, the phone cut out this morning when I was trying to get info from ya, I have a stock header/port matched/precat delete with a shrick cam. My car has power everywhere and is very driveable and friendly. Would my car benefit greatly with just your cam or just one of your headers? Why the combo recommendation? Am I insane for swapping out one performance cam for another? Is this an important upgrade? Safe? Too many??'s

Im trying to justify this frivolous spending I'm about to do...

 

I've had a Schrick and Jan's cam. Jan's is way better down low. Power band is a lot nicer. Nothing lost up top either. All I have is his header,exhaust and cam and my numbers are better than yours. His header and cam are huge number makers.

 

TVS it is then! I need more whp! not enough ***** in my car to scare me like my 944 turbo would! even the E60 modded m5 doesnt scare me... I can handle it np.... hahaha... 400whp in the mini and ill be done...

BTW how much is the smaller tvs expected to cost...

 

Thanks!
Anyone interested in a great deal on a schrick cam

 

how good of a deal? lol

 

I like how Jan framed the image. I will put it on the wall at home, 'cause thats as close as I'll get before the street unit makes it to my car. Alms for the poor anyone?

 

I am curious to see how loud this street setup is...
