Default Long Tube Header install dynos please

I want to know exactly how many horses a good LT header will give an (bolt-on mods only) LS1. I've heard everything from 8 to 25 - there must be a reasonable number in between to expect from this mod.....

Sure provides a nice increase, but for ~$1K + install, hmm, not sure.

My car is in the shop right now getting the TPIS Longtubes, Z06 Intake & Crane Roller Rockers installed. I will be curious what The total will yeild for my car?? :confused: I like to do a couple of HP Mods together so when you test drive it the first time you get a big SOTP improvement!

A Be Cool Radiator & Power Steering oil cooler is going in as well... but it does not have anything to do with HP. :eek: We will be doing a dyno on the 25th of August here locally and I will know what it runs then. I will report back as soon as I can on the new HP #'s :smash: :smash: :cool:

vetterdstr :cheers:
