If you only see two O2 sensor harnesses at the front of your engine bay or an O2 sensor behind your MAIN cat, you have a FED spec.

You have a lot of research to do, and also need to learn to express your thoughts a little better.

Install difficulty relies on the skill of the installer. As does the 'tuining' idea.

And also, a wb is a must when dynoing, the shop typically has one.


www.dynojet.com for further information bout the dyno.

Check the All Motor forum as well as the links in the first post of this thread.

All in all... I was happy with my HotShots, but I like my Cattmans more... Stainless in NY FTW.

But the deal you can get on the HotShots right now is killer! If I had the choice... I would be all over the HotShots right now.

how much more are the cattmans and how much of a difference is there if any?
i was on the website for the hotshots, they have a great deal going on... i dont know how much longer they will have them for 300 flat w/ free shipping but im definitely about to get them. Heres the dyno they have on the website....

Accurate?? (how much of a gain would there be?) cuz i cant read that for jack and i never had a dyno done before

Don't go stricktly off of Dynos... Everycar is different and it depends on other mods, AFR and dyno opertion.

They do make good power, Cattman should make a BIT more (2-3whp), Cattmans are aimed more at midrange increase while HotShots are more top end... So for most people Cattmans make more useable power.

HotShots are $300 shipped right now (orig $600)... Cattmans are $830-$880 shipped.

Since many people are debating on Cattman or Hotshot, you should ask yourself if you want stainless steel instead of the "how many more hp/tq?" Also, rumor has it that Cattman sounds "better." You can be the judge for that.

Damn, well thats an easy decision for me. i will go with the Hotshot headers. only because it is cheaper and there isnt THAT much of a difference in power between the two.

Well they state that it only has the headers on that dyno. I intend to get intake and headers installed at the same time. Would this be a better move then to install them separately?

There are several Hotshot dynos in the header sticky, use those as a point of reference, not that picture.

Is there a problem with the these headers if your going for the Polished Stainless look and not as worried about the length?
