Today we installed the RMW race header with high flow cat, It Makes a differnce compaired to my old $140 OBX with stock cat. the sound is very noticable in the upper RPM ranges.The exhaut flow it grately increaced

 

Congrats .

Here is the mother of your header . Still on my cars after thousands of problem free miles.

Longboard

 

Damn it, I should of wrapped my header before the install.

 

Looks very similar to my Stahle. What is the output diameter of the header?

 

Same as a normal SBC 1 5/8

 

You are like the village jester. I am looking for an answer. Not a riddle.

 

I gave you the answer; 1 5/8 of an inch

I do live in a village though

 

I meant the collector. Which looking at the header is not that size

 

Where it narrows down ? or where it goes to the cat ?

 

LOL
The MUMMY Header

 

Yeah its NICE...... Longbord is the header your showing for the 1.8 rotrex car ? it looks very close to the to the other one. We are curently installing a 1.8l rotrex motor in one of our race minis. you can see the differnct in the headers..SWEET ..... 14 Weeks till first track day :0

 

Nice. So what'd you do? Cut and weld that Borla cat-back? Did you extend the 2nd o2 wires? If so, did you use regular electrical wire or thermocouple wire?

 

The borla needs alittle trim but it all fits. it is a longer unit, Jan sent me a 02 extension wire it has factory conections and its protected just like a OE wire, for the front o2 if you pull the the rear wire from its fixed location you will see that it is longer and reached my cat.

The pics are with out the res pipe. i took it for a drive and dam it was loud...and i would not pass sound test for track racing ...... so you can see the flang i put on the cat with that little pipe on it. thats were the res pipe just fits in. You have to flip the center exhaust hanger and cut a pice out of it so you res can but up to the Borla's center clamp.

I ill take some more pics with the res pipe installed.. Sound tested at 89 db with high flow cat and res pipe installed Still leagle limit is 96 db

 

Nice. I wish your shop locate in Toronto, then for sure I will bring my to you and do some crazy mods....btw, do you have pick up and drop off service

 

aww its not that far.. ....5 hours.....its a good road trip. I have a few guys that come up from toronto, kingstion and Montreal for work. for tunning and stuff...

We dont have a pick up program..... But depending of what your looking at doing somthing can always be aranged. for a mini owner that whants to go Fast.

Car swap..I'll bring the race car Ear plugs needed for that drive

 

Lowmini

Is the braided line along the tunnel your meth line?
When are you doing a retune? Jandata logger?

 

Soni
Jan's coming to Rochester, NY in April to Eksten's. Get a tune on your car and have some crazy things installed.

 

Here is what I am planning to get done.
RMW head, cam, piston, headers, 440 injectors, Meth kit, Rotrex or the other supercharge that Jan is working on. Let me know what can be arranged.

 

I will be getting his remote tune kit. I have to see how far I can get the mods done. For sure I want to have all mods install before I get the proper tune. If i can find a local shop who know or how to get my list of mod done, I may just give it a shot.

 

Yeah thats meth.. I will be going to rodchester aswell in april, our three sponsed race cars are getting there spring tune, and our 1.8l rotrex car is going too, in total theres 5 of us going look on the forms www.ottawaminiclub.ca under rodchester drive and tune

 

Looks awesome!

I didn't realize RMW was still making headers or is this a one off item?

 

that was our Race header, we still make headers for the street also

 

Just perfect. Is that header for high Rpm range only?
Does it cuts torque in lower rpm?

Thanks,
srdks

 

lowmini, cool upgrade. Considering you have a stroked engine, I would think you would need it for improved airflow.

R53Warrior, I believe the collector is 2.5" This is assuming the exhaust is aftermarket. My Invidia exhaust has 2.5" piping.

srdks, yes, you usually lose low-end torque for top-end HP with a header upgrade. However, if the difference is significant (i.e. more HP gained vs. losing less TQ), the upgrade is worth it. In my opinion, it's not worth getting an aftermarket header until you have at least done a pulley, CAI, exhaust, and tune. I'm not going to even bother until I make up my mind to get head and cam upgrades.

 

I already have instaled 15% pulley,Newman cam,Alta cai v2,bypass valve,spark plugs,miltec cat-back,
and I am looking for header. But it's not on rmw's site.
Any information would be very usefull.

Thanks
