Re: SVX headers
all they are doing in porting out a stock manifold.
with a die grinder/dremel, iPod and time you can do the same.

Re: SVX headers
I've ordered a few things from grimspeed when I had my GC. They're big on rs25.com. I know we can port them ourselves, but evenly? Btw, the spool thing is because a lot of impreza guys are now swapping and boosting eg33s.

Re: SVX headers
So is this for SVX headers, or for the 3.0 headers? Are the two similar at all? At the top of the page is says PnP Exhaust Manifold 3.0L Engines but then down further they say 3rd party Subaru SVX owners have seen ~15 whp/wtq gains.
Maybe it's just a simple typo on the displacement at the top of the page? On a sidenote, it would be nice to see a set of tubular, equal-length, headers that aren't a one-off piece though! Perhaps I'll be forced to make my own? lol *edit* I finally read the bottom (duhr) and it looks like it's just for any 6-cylinder engine, as they have no core, you just send them yours.

Re: SVX headers
That's a good question. Could be for that hzr motor, butbpics look like the one off a svx.

Re: SVX headers
Naturally, we have to ask whether this is dyno'd, and whether there are other mods to the engine.

There's a reason that butts can't type.

Re: SVX headers
I don't know a thing about svx headers but it be amazing if there where a set we can buy aftermarket uneven for the boxer rumble. Like the imprezas.

Of course, it still wouldn't sound the same because part of that Boxer rumble is the 4-cylinders exhaust strokes being 180* apart (plus its got a turbo). Flat 6's are generally alot smoother than most other engines because they balance themselves VERY well. That third row of pistons really makes a difference. Wiki edit: Quote:

The reason that the flat four cylinder engines sound so different to the flat six's is because the fours fire the cylinders left, left, right, right. With the two 4cyl. pulses contained in the same side header pipe, the sounds combine to produce a longer single sound. The flat 4 VW engine sounds the same as the flat 4 Subaru engines for the same reason. The six fires left, right, left, right, left, right, each side alternatively. So it will never produce the same type of sound. Harvey.
