It's settled: I must own something with 180 degree headers

[Bru]

On TCG Tour a few of us were talking about 180-degree headers and how amazing they sound.

That impala straight up sounded like VTECCCCC kicked in

interesting that they connect below. Wouldn't that be bad for heat generation?

Very popular back in the day

idk [MENTION=12]Bru[/MENTION], i think i prefer the lope and cackle of a standard setup.

Aren't these only optimal for lower rpm powerband engines?

There's nothing more subjective than exhaust preference, but the exotic sound from these makes me

That last pic makes it seem SOOO easy to do lol.

But packaging in any other car is going to be a nightmare.

No way could that work in an F-Body. Unless it's an off-road F-Body. Hell, I can't even fit a few super slim catalytic converters under the damn car without it rattling on the floorboard.

I'd almost rather Lingenfelter started producing their 180° cranks, they have one for their TT drag car. Re-wire the injectors so they pulse in the right firing order, and do the same for the coils.

Wala, 180° sound, 180* firing, no crazy exhaust setup. In fact, you can ditch the H or X pipe entirely and run them straight duals all the way back. And the crank would be lighter too.

I would love to see this tested on engine masters
