Default Stainless Works Stepped Headers

So I'm looking to get headers on my C7 and have been looking into the stainless works stepped headers. I have not been able to find a single dyno on them though.

Has anyone installed them on their car and have some first hand impressions. I had the stainless works catback on my V coupe and loved the sound but I want to actually make some power on my corvette not just sound. The fact that they are about $300 cheaper than the American racing headers is a plus also.

Haven't had a chance to install any on a C7 yet, but we're looking forward to it. We've used them on plenty of other applications over the years. Their fitment and workmanship is very good and they make great power.

Feel free to call, PM or email me anytime with questions or pricing and we'll be happy to help you out with set.

Best regards,

Tyler

Ive installed and tuned a few of the 1.875" headers on the C7 for some friends

Average gains with a calibration on the stock paper air filter are 20-30whp and 30-35wtq..

Still have a few of the 1.875" setting in the storage corner


Here's dyno results with the Stainless Works 1.875" Off-road Xpipe:

Thanks so much for the link. I think I may pull the trigger on them. I do not see the point of paying $2000.00 for the american racing headers if these are just as good. The car sounds absolutely wonderful.
