This kind of brings up a related question, how many people who has this header is running OFT (kind of related)?

Also what type of maps? I'm going to keep my stg 1 and keep it going, but anyone utilize stage 2 on these to see if there's any problems? (eg. bogging cel etc?)

I'd probably purchase an Etune from shiv once I get the headers in though just to make sure that I can run with that and get as much power as I can out of these, but would be nice to know if anyone has done this yet.

Any replies would be noice

Amazing how flat that torque curve is even without a tune!

yeah it was pretty noticeable right away after installing the header...it was definitely impressive that the header got rid of it basically

Indeed, but it also smoothens out the peak around 4.7k by filling the depression higher up!

I'm amazed and slightly confused on how this header in particular can eliminate the torque dip so well.

It's not. There's only been one instance of that mentioned so far. Unless this becomes a common thing I wouldn't worry.

It might be worth it for the richer (safer) A/F ratio. Take a look at the bottom of that dyno chart.

This is exactly why I got the tune to get my A/F to a safer ratio and I mean 10HP for how much the tune cost was the best bang for my buck so far
