Ive been researching headers online due to LG motorsports being on back order with their LG Pro's and have came across Dynatech headers with catted x pipe for like 1200 bucks. I havnt seen anybody post threads on how good the dynatech headers are on C5 Z06 as compared to any other brand such as Kooks longtubes.

So anybody here running a set of Dynatech headers on their C5 Z06 ?

Both a friend and I installed them on our Zs, an 01 and an 02, without any major drama. They seem to be a high quality product that fits well and offers no surprises during installation. My 01 with the normal bolt ons and the Dynatechs dynos 390 RWHP on a Mustang dyno.

I have also have them with the catted-X and have had no issues so far. They have been on the car well over a year now.

very good product. But limited by 2.5" mid section which may not be an issue if you don't ever care to go to a full 3" exhaust.

Thanks for the info on them Dynatechs. Dynatech sure pointed out alot of differences between theirs and LG's headers. I guess im gonna have to make a difficult choice. Save some money and have a good set of headers or spend a little more and get a brand thats been highly recommended here on this Z06 forum.

Had them on my H/C 2000 coupe. I thought they were a great setup. Do understand the 2.5" comment from above, but overall they were very nice.

I hope to be shipping our headers to everyone that has an order in here very very shortly. I should be boxing them up on Monday so bare with us as we start catching up.


I'll save the Dynatech speech for another thread.
