**new** Jbp Vortex Long Tube Header **video**
OKAY AND THE VIDEO - ITS A PORCHE, ITS A FERRARI, ITS A STI, OR MAYBE ITS A WRX?

NOPE WRONG!!! ITS A COBALT SS SUPERCHARGED



ONCE AGAIN, THE EXHAUST IS A VORTEX HEADER, STOCK DP, 2.5 CATBACK W/ A 3" GLASSPACK RESONATOR, A 2.5" MAGNAFLOW STRAIGHT THRU MUFFLER, AND A 4" TIP.

Exactly... nothing like being flat black and sounding the part!

As for power... JBP gained 31 whp w/ all their exhaust components including their intake...

As for me... My car is already a well modded 2.7 and 60s, 100% water injected pre blower, etc...

I was already making good power to begin with... so honestly I can't really tell as of yet. I'll let you know when I retune for a 50/50 meth mix.

a big pain in the ass... the guy I had install it was in for a nice treat... But he has the right set of tools.. took about 3 1/2 hours.

The bolts it comes w/ are useless... just reused the stockers. Almost every turn of the bolts, needs to be made an 1/8 at a time due to lack of space. The heat insulation needed to be cut a tad, and the AC LINE needed to be moved a bit over.

Heat insulation?



Rip that **** out.

Oh sounds good...less talky, more exhausty though...


...and the reason why boxer's burble stock is because of unenqual length headers.

It sounds smooth honestly...sounds like an ecotec.

Why is that?

Get rid of the heaton.

A turbo SS is the way things were meant to be.

Oh and make sure you get rid of the stock mani

I can attest to this. Heard a stock ss/tc and a hhr ss pull off. Sounded good as hell. I refuse to believe that ss/tc's have "Stock" exhaust. I believe they put cat backs on them when they get to the dealers. :P j/k

As for the video, damn it does sound good. I want a header and dp now. But rims first.
