Ah. Even better...less work. | |

| Is the header a 4 to 1 or a 4 to 2 to 1? I'm guessing it is meant to add high end power? | |

| They're 4-2-1, I didn't take a before picture but you can see in the first picture right after I wrapped all four pipes together as one is when they converge to 2, and they stay as 2 until just before the first O2 sensor. Besides power gains, these headers completely change the sound of the K20 engine, giving it an angry tone rather than just a loud one! | |

- Phew...look at that truck!
Thanks Andrew. Wait until the turbo on the Regal is done. Should be good for 500+hp. Not that I will push it that hard. The turbo is about the size of a basketball. lol These will be the summer wheels on the truck. Figure 305/50/20 tires on them. The truck is making me want a lighter car with RWD V8 tho... Turbo Regal will have to be good enough for now. | |

| My brother decided to sell his 2006 F-350 Super Duty earlier this year. I "need" a one-ton diesel 4x4 about as much as I need a hole in my head, but I couldn't resist. 85k miles, 6.0L Power Stroke with ARP head studs, EGR cooler, Edge programmer, prototype 4" KORE Performance lift (mfg of the Dodge RamRunner option) with Fox 2.0 shocks, 3 Baja Designs HID racing lights... many more extras. The biggest selling point was the fact that this was a one owner truck, and my brother is waaaay more anal about his vehicles (and records) than I am, plus I have a truck that I know the absolute complete history on. Way too much fun to drive too! | |

| Nice truck! My neighbor and his buddies all have newer 3/4 ton Diesels. One Powerstroke and 3 Duramax's. One of the is a 2012 Duramax with the LML engine and make something like 550whp and almost 1000 lb*ft with just an exhaust and tune. Runs 8.2s-8.4s consistently in the 1/8th mile in 4 wheel drive! Some incredible sleepers those new diesel trucks are and looks like a nice one you've got! | |

That was the single biggest weakness of the 6.0. I would have been squeamish buying this truck from a random craigslist ad just for that reason. My dad has an F-250 from the same year, and his had to be done twice under warranty before it was repaired correctly. The fact that they had been done before there was a problem, and the fact that I *know* how this truck was treated it's whole life were major selling points. - th3fr4nchi5e wrote:

Thanks! I don't know how much this tune makes, but I know on the "5" setting it'll roll some coal and put your butt in the seat. The only drawback was driving it from San Diego to Charlotte getting 13.1 mpg! | |

| so bad things happened : The astra blew the trans up via the trans cooler-was covered by warranty, however the radiator was also ruined-$742 bucks down the drain. Anyway aside from other life changing incidents I felt it was time for a change " /> | |
