Sample size needs to get larger before the jury can settle on headers. I am thinking the make a difference as tuners figure it out…
I’m thinking the 1320 is the restriction and the headers are just along for the ride. Decat or hfc or headers all seem to be the same.
I’m not really thinking that. Just repeating what the smartest guy in the room said a few months ago.
As for sample size the second fastest b8 s4 outpaced a stage 2 apr headers car multiple Times and a stage 2 giac headers car multiple times head to head. Same modlists…which actually favoured the headers cars. Didn’t matter.

I have probably asked before but isn’t the catback a little undersized on the B8 S4s? The Miltek is 2.37" and I would think that 2.5" would be ideal.

Slowcarbon is hilarious (7 month wait here before I got mine). I actually posted in the AZ thread didn’t know it was you prime!
???, prime isn’t slowcarbon, lol Prime makes the paddle extenders. Saki mentioned it would be cool if they could be wrapped in CF by Ocarbon…slowcarbon

Doug, Don’t totally disagree as I’m a stats guy at heart and sample size is always important… I’ve tried to do my part in bringing data to light as you have as well…
I’m going to see if I can make some additional testing happen, but it won’t be under the current hardware that most are running so it won’t be relevant to most… I have no problem spending the money to prove/disprove them vs test pipes vs hfc’s… If they work I’ll add them if they don’t we may be able to finally put this to bed… No promises though as I’ll need some help on this and it won’t be my call in the end but I’ll do my best… Going to be a fun year for this car no doubt about that ;D

^^ Ya it shld be a great year for the B8. Getting excited to see how the new blower performs. It HAS to come out this year, right?

Do we have a 1740 predictions thread?

Sort of… Almost 2 years old and different blower… lol

Perfect is the enemy of good. Totally agree, and we have to use the data in front of us which shows conflicting results. Your head to head was very telling, but my stage 1 time is also curious.
Can’t wait to see the results for the new blower. Should be a great year for sure.

Wasn’t your time run in some fantastic DA? Could explain part of it.
