1 5/8" primaries for the 2.2L or 2.4L & 1 3/4" for the 2.0L supercharged engine. Also, any nitrous oxide applicationwill benefit from the 1 3/4" primaries.


alright thanks i guess 1 3/4 is for me. aluminized steel, or 304 stainless steel down-pipe would be the same price or whats the diff on it? which one you recommend?

 

So buy the extra one I have, its just regular header gasket material, i don't know how well they work on these cars. MLS can be re-used until you break it, it doesn't wear out like a normal gasket does.

 

Can anyone tell me what type of materials this header and downpipe are made of? Is it coated with anything (I know the ceramic can be purchased additional)? Will it be painted with a high temp paint? Is it susceptible to rusting like other uncoated exhausts? Thanks!

 

omg beths so nice , I think I'm in love. does she date black guys?

 

thats what everyone says (not the black guy thing though ) hahaha
beth is awesome

 

yea. I would like to know too asap

 

Please see page 1 for all material data, specs, etc.
We can paint the header but it's pretty much pointless as the paint will almost certainly burn and peel off like and other mild steel header. I know this community tends to go without the ceramic coating but it really is the best way to go. Ceramic will reduce radiated heat by 80%, increase scavenging (good for more power) and reduce oxidation (rust).

Here's some pictures of the ceramic coated 1 3/4" header.




Also note the finish work on the inside of the header. This is why we are the best in the industry. No one matches our finish work and attention to detail.

 

Thank you! You guys are so sweet! For the record, I DO date black guys, but...I DON'T date customers, sorry guys!

 

I will ask again since the question still has not been answered...

Page #1 does not list the type of material

"Materials & details:
3/8" thick header flange
14 gage (.083) wall steel tubing
machined collector
3" gasketless ball-socket flange
all clamp marks polished
machined flange with full welds on both sides of the flange"

Is this regular mild steel tubing? Or an aluminized steel? The only other mention is having the downpipe built from stainless steel for an additional $70.

Soo for people with this header or any ones similar in nature, will this type of material be susceptible to rusting extremely easily? Also is it available in stainless steel for both the header and downpipe? I am curious because I have a Flowmaster system on my 69' Chevelle SS and it is made of aluminized steel... 5 years later and it is rust free. Conversely I have heard that a regular mild steel header and dp will rust relatively quickly, especially with winter conditions. Thanks for the info...

 

The "steel" the headers are made from is mild steel. The collectors may be steel or aluminized steel depending on what we have available to form them from. Yes, they will rust without a coating. However, we use 14 gage (.083) wall thick tubing. I can not stress enough the benefit of ceramic coating.

We can build the headers in 304 stainless steel but we do not have any header flanges in 304 available. To justify ordering a batch we would need a minimum of 20 stainless header orders. Otherwise individual stainless flanges will cost roughly $75.00 each. Even with the header being stainless, the ball/flange collar will still be mild steel. But we would have it ceramic coated to go with the stainless header.

 

how much does the 2.5" exhaust you did on the g5/pursuit cost?

will it also bolt on directly to an ion redline with no issues?

 

I will be pricing the exhaust today and getting some pictures of the 3" R&D system as well as the 2 1/2" R&D system posted in another thread.

The Ion Redline is longer so an adjustment will be made. We have an Ion standing by for exhaust install/R&D, possibly later this week.
Thanks.

 

Dan, thank you very much for the clarification of the materials of the header / downpipe combo. This looks to be a very nice setup.

 

well your gonna make me not order my combo anymore just so I won't be a customer.

 

there nobody more funny than this guy!

 

hahaha
I only laugh cause i know beth and dan

 

You guys are awesome, I haven't laughed so hard in a long time! Now don't cancel your order X or then we are down one and the other GP guys are gonna hate lol. But if it means that much to you...at least wait till there are 16 then you could cancel lol :P

 

Just for clarification:

All dating inqueries for Beth need to go through me. No exception!
I will evaluate the compatibility, post your status and over-all chances.

All decisions are final.

 

Just called in my order.. thanks for your time beth I love the costumer service you guys have very fast and friendly

 

just for reference...what sizing would you suggest for my 2.2?? i plan on doing no more than 200-220whp...im going to be dropping an M62 in...
let me know man

im very interested in this GB as i missed out on the Vibrant one...

very nice products you have
