Wortec Headers for VXR8

[vxrphantom]

I know when at the Ace in jan, Paul was talking about the new headers for the R8 - Are they available yet?

Im not sure, but any decent ones would need to relocate the cats as they are right up close to the ports.

I managed to squeeze 360rwhp out of my stock setup, so its not too bad. Plenty of cat back systems failed to get anywhere near that. I think next best was in the 320 range, which suggests gains are to be made elsewhere with a stock system.

Would be interested to see some pics. The Monaro headers looked pretty good with a merge collector etc.
So if the vxr8 ones are similar they could be nice. What is the primary pipe size?

Here's the picture of my headers i fitted to my LS2 Ro,

They are 100 cell cats and the stainless headers were hpc coated ( www.hpcoatings.com.au/pages/hipercoat.htm )to keep the temps down a tad under the bonnet and alows the gasses to flow through better and last longer.They still look new after 8 months. see above link

All delivered for less than £1100. there link below

Nice and shinny Did you have them coated before you brought them? Does anyone know any companies over hear which does the same?
