Default Anyone have the Dynatech Headers?

How are they? I've heard mixed reviews on them. Found a good price on the whole set up, but not sure if I want to go with them or not. Any dyno numbers or input would be great.

I have had mine for a year on my '07 Vette. No leaks or fitment issues. I put them on at the same time as a BB Route 66 exhaust. I think it makes a Vette sound like a Vette should. I had a Com cam and a Maggie 122 before I got any dyno #s so I can't help you with dyno #s for just the headers. I can tell you you could feal the differance with the headers and the exhaust. I would buy them again in a heart beat.


Got mine from TBryne great price during a group purchase along with the BB exhtaust.

Thanks, they seem to be a lot cheaper than the other brands.

Mine have been on almost 2 years now. After reading the posts of other people with no gaskets, no bolts, lousy instructions, missing parts, broken parts, unusable parts, etc. with the other brands of headers I'm very happy to have purchased the Dynotech Supermaxx 1 7/8". No problems, easy install, good looking SS and did I mention that alll the parts were there and correct? The only thing I had to supply was anti-seize (and my time and tools). Dynatech Headers w/cats, Lingenfelter CAI, CofW tune and ported stock intake= 384RWHP/382RWTQ SAE smoothing 5.

Be carefull when you purchase, some of the manufacturers/retailers make outrageous HP claims and there is mis-representation as to what pieces are supplied.

I have them on my '99 C5 and I have been very pleased with them. I will probably get them for my C6 sometime after I pick it up in September.

I use them on my C6. Headers, highflow cats and connection pipes. They are mated up to the stock exhaust. Yes, the aftermarket parts guy is using the stock exhaust I've driven alot of loud vehicles, I like this one quiet

btw- There will be a Dynatech header group purchase posted tomorrow

I've had them also on my C5 and C6 with stock axle back exhaust. Get the HP and reduce the noise!

I had them on for about 15,000 miles before I did my turbo setup. I was 100% SATISFIED with the product - no issues at all. As a precaution, I had the last tube on the driver's side heat wrapped (closest to the clutch line), as well as the clutch line itself heat wrapped and moved an inch further. The car made about 380 RWHP with the longtubes, high flows, X pipe, and a Halltech intake. Roughly 40 RWHP over my stock baseline. I miss them... they were LOUD!
