Wagner 2.0 N/A Header Installed!
- Thread starter viVid
- Start date
Sounds pretty sweet. Is that all Wagner? How much was the catless DP?
ogsp5 said:Hey vivid that is a sweet set up. Hopefully the combo that I ordered will be hear soon.(Header,Down pipe without cat and mid pipe with cat plus a few extras)
As did I. My order is indeed processed, and should should ship at the end of the week.ogsp5 said:Got a comfirmation call from Andy today. All parts are being made !

How did you guys do that? I made a order with Nick about two weeks ago before the whole fiasco happened and my credit card was already charged but I received no confirmation or receipt. This was no small order either. I've been emailing and phoning Andy but I have not been able to reach him. What is your secret? How do I reach him and should I be worried? Did you get some sort of receipt by email? Thanks.

Subghetto said:Yeah I personally did that over time is not that bad.
This is my future set-up Wanger SS header-----> Wagner Hi-flow Pre-cat Downpipe-----> Wagner Mid-pipe w/o cat------> HKS axle back
I already have the hks axle back and ordered the header so all I need is the mid-pipe and the downpipe it's worth the money considering all the pieces are made in high grade SS and come with the best cats on the market not to mention you have the option of staying legal and still making as much power as those that run cat-less. Another thing is that these pieces are all manderl bent which most custom shops won't do unless they are really into high performance.
Btw... $1000 might sound like a lot but that's in one shot but over time it's nothing I've already spent $2,500 on my mods and the tab keeps adding up just don't thing about it lol because then you will go crazy (eekdance)
Were are theses parts you are talking about on his website?
Here s the question how much gain did you get from it?

sorry I am stumbling into this thread a little late but I have a question about the above quote. you got a shorty header that would bolt to the primary cat, the assumed reason behind this was to stay emissions legal and yet get gains out of a better flowing exhaust manifold. But then the second half of the sentance states your getting a downpipe without a cat. so basically you wont be emissions legal and kinda killed the point of getting a shorty header no?can't wait for mine to come in, I also got the downpipe w/o cat!
I mean otherwise for less money than you spent total on the two peices you could have gotten a 4-1(which is essentially what you will have with the 2 piece setup) or a 4-2-1 header that would have done the same wthing with the same or better gains and for less money....
maybe im just not getting it.
also does anyone know if there is a dyno scan or thread somewhere showing when they got a 7whp gain with that header.

I figure he meant mid-pipe, but then again, why bother with the shorty if you're removing any cat... kinda kills the emissions legal thing either way.

Just gotta bug the s*** out of him. E-mails, voice mails, call after call.Protege_Speed said:How did you guys do that?

The only confirmation I rec'd (before Monday) was from Nick saying HE got my order and was processing it himself. And that was after two weeks of nagging e-mails.
Just keep in mind, he just recently opened the shop, and is hiring two new guys to help out, as he is now by himself.
Good luck.
Yeah the wagner is 63.5mm and the HKS is 55mm so there is a 8.5mm difference is that a big deal? I'am just curious if you have a stock P5 and you bought the wagner mid-pipe would'nt it just bolt-on to the stock axle part of the exhaust?ogsp5 said:hey Sub, the mid pipe is made of 2 1/2 S.S you might want to check the dia of the HKS!
These are the parts I'am talking aboutZG77_OzZ said:Were are theses parts you are talking about on his website?
Downpipe- http://www.wagnermotorsports.net/projects.php?pid=18
Mid-pipe- http://www.wagnermotorsports.net/productDetails.php?id=12
Header- http://www.wagnermotorsports.net/projects.php?pid=38
You have to look under projects to find the pieces but they are for sale.
Well they dynoed that shorty header at 7hp and the HKS axle-back was dynoed in turbo magazine making 5.7hp so with the mid-pipe and down-pipe I'am hoping to get decent gains considering I already have a Injen CAI and UR underdrive pulley.ZG77_OzZ said:Here s the question how much gain did you get from it?

ok so after your explanation of parts i go back to my original question, you got a shorty header to stay emissions legal and your thinking of the DP without a cat? that kinda defeats the purpose of getting a shorty header no?
Now if your getting the DP with a CAT that makes sense. That I would get his midpipe with just the resinator and no cat, or 2 resonators....no need for 2 cats when going aftermarket. and at that point if all the piping is bigger than your HKS you can either have it cut and have 2.5 piping welded to the can or get a 2.5 axle back to replace it.
