evallejo Posted February 16, 2008 Report Share Posted February 16, 2008 Make sure you got long tube headers too. A cam (heads too if you can afford it) and stall will help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
waltsum3 Posted February 16, 2008 Author Report Share Posted February 16, 2008 (edited) From looking around on the forums i must have lost some torque do to CAI and Exhaust. I want to be able to get off the line with some dignity . Don't want to look like a brick on wheels .

waltsum3 Posted February 16, 2008 Author Report Share Posted February 16, 2008 4:10 rear end Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evallejo Posted February 16, 2008 Report Share Posted February 16, 2008 Add the long tube headers, and if you think your free-flowing exhaust is the culprit for lost torque, you can gain some if not all or more of the torque lost by adding an x-pipe.

waltsum3 Posted February 16, 2008 Author Report Share Posted February 16, 2008 Have a dual in dual out flowmaster super 40. Does it not already act like a X- pipe ?. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evallejo Posted February 16, 2008 Report Share Posted February 16, 2008 The muffler itself does not have an x-pipe built in like some Magnaflow or Dynomax mufflers do if that's what you're asking. I can't say I know if it will behave like an x pipe though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
