Header Redundancy on Turbo?

[REZXPERT]

are there benefits to installing headers on turbo, namely the MS3?

 

[njaremka]

yes, especially when you install more than one

Getting air in and out of a small displacement engine efficiently is key in producing power. The smoother and more even the exhaust manifold, the faster and more efficiently the gases enter the turbo.

and ps, it's header.

last time i checked turbo cars don't have 'headers'

headers = pipe set/flange from exhaust side of head to actual exhaust

exhaust manifold perhaps????? = manifold from exhaust side of head to turbo., then comes exhaust.

 

[mrlilguy157]

Header and exhaust manifold are the same thing.

A header is still an exhaust manifold but usually less restrictive that the typical stock manifold made from cast iron. And yes you can have a header in a turbocharged car.

headers are just exaust manifolds made out of tubing , it would make a difference , in most any exhaust system the most power gains come from headers although they would be some pricey mofos for sure in our car

DNP makes a header for the ms3 for less than $500. Not really that expensive when considering how much catback and dp and all that cost.
