Exhaust technical

[chow]

Hey,

for all of you Stillen/Nismo exhaust guys out there.

I understand how a high flowing exhaust works and how it works to increase HP, but if we (3.5SE) still have a restrictive header.. How well can that new exhaust work for you?

If you think of it, your getting the same amount of restricted air that is allowed to flow freely once it hits the exhaust. Im assuming the exhaust systems didnt give you more then 3-5 HP. Im also assuming if you get stillen/nismo headers, if they come out, that it would make that number alot higher.

SOMONE EMAIL STILLEN TO MAKE A HEADER!

consider the header and cat back to be 2 seperate numbers

1 + 1 = 2

now if the header is the first #, and the cat back is the second #, and we change the cat back to aftermarket, making it a 0 (no restriction) then 1 + 0 = 1

Yes it still has some restriction, but not as much as it did with full stock exhaust

the 3rd gen header will fit. but headers on a VQ altima is a dream that is never gonna come true. wideband sensors = unsolved SES light

[adidas2go]

fu*k that. im going to figure out something for this sensor. I need the schematic. If i can do it on planes a car should be fairly simple

How did the 2005 SER altima install headers?
