Default Dynamax LT by Dynatech

Hi, Gents I was looking at some Dynamax headers, wanted to know your opinions on them. Which ones and are they reliable. It would be for my 2012 GS.I'm also getting a A&A blower with a blower cam. THANKS FOR YOUR INPUT.

Sounds like you are putting a good bit of money into the car. Why would you skimp out on headers? Get some quality headers like looks, leg,arch, etc.,

Thanks I had kooks on my GTO which after some time developed pinhole leaks in the collectors. Several welders could not fix the issue.

Pipe is pipe. If they clear the ground and are made of the same material, why pay more because of the name? My Dynatech headers have been rock solid for 3 years of hard use now.

My Dynatechs have been on for ten years and since they are jet hot coated they look as good as the day I installed them. Since you are going all out performance you might consider LG Motorsports pro long tubes. Go to their website and check them out. Since they are a serious performance/race shop in the Dallas Texas area they know what they are doing.

Dk anything about their headers but my car came with Dynomax axle-backs and they should have been called Droneomax because they were murder at highway speeds. Swapped them for stock take-offs.

I would stay away from LG headers, i have them on my car and have been unsatisfied with them from day one. What ever you get make sure it is a ball flange at the header like Kook, American Racing or the dynatechs you thinking about.
