matth76 1 Posted February 10, 2006 Report Share Posted February 10, 2006 What exactly is a "header"? From what they seemed to be saying a header is a waste of time. Link to post Share on other sites
VR6Rob 0 Posted February 10, 2006 Report Share Posted February 10, 2006 a header is the exhust manifold in the usa.they have allways said that there are no gains to be had by using one on the vr engin on vwvortex Link to post Share on other sites
Eat this 2 Posted February 10, 2006 Report Share Posted February 10, 2006 i dont really care if it makes any power it sounds great and i gained 25 whp and 30 lb ft at the wheels from header 268 cams and remap so id say it does give a bit of power Link to post Share on other sites
VR6Rob 0 Posted February 10, 2006 Report Share Posted February 10, 2006 they used to be relly expensive £600-£1200 depending on make. for the cost of them now around £160 if they give a few bhp and your happy its all good Link to post Share on other sites
matth76 1 Posted February 10, 2006 Report Share Posted February 10, 2006 Yeah I noticed that when I posted a while back on the VWVortex forum. Mine has made a huge difference. Far more torque low down. Getting my car rolling roaded in 3 weeks at Stealth, along with a BMC so should see what power difference it has made. My last rr figure was around 195bhp. I'll see what the new figure is. Link to post Share on other sites
wayne_1@tiscali.co.uk 27 Posted February 10, 2006 Report Share Posted February 10, 2006 looks exactly same as a raceland manifold Link to post Share on other sites
mattverth 0 Posted February 10, 2006 Author Report Share Posted February 10, 2006 I sent that dude a question on ebay about the years - 99-05 or whatever. He couldnt really give a definitive answer about the fact that over here, those years are 24valve. He asked me to find out for him if it would fit cars outside the US!

DundeeDub 0 Posted February 11, 2006 Report Share Posted February 11, 2006 in the usa the mk4's still carried the 12v vr6 aswell as the newer 24v vr6 Link to post Share on other sites
