  • After suspecting that we were having a cat failure, we upgraded to a set of Kooks Headers and squeezed out a few extra ponies on Andrew's C7 Corvette.

    Good video with lots of info and comparisons. For the guys that work on their own cars a dropped bolt in the engine bay really sucks and if you need that bolt you usually have to get off the bottom plate covers. Mikes face when Andrew dropped the bolt, “Priceless”

    This an awesome mini series Andrew.. You definitely need to keep doin these and then do a giveaway of each one.. Helps the channel, answers a ton of questions of what kinda power you pick up with typical mods so you’re not gettin asked a million questions.. But I think you should do a LS3 next for comparison to see mod for mod who really gains more. Content baby!!! 😉

    4:33 you get even more room if you pull the 2 10mm bolts to the coolant reservoir. Makes it much easier to get to #8 spark plug.

    389 whp is very low especially on a dyno jet. Did you check the compression? Stock stingrays should be making on average 400-420. Maybe fuel trims are out of sorts. You guys are pros for sure. Wish I lived in PA I would be very comfortable with putting my zo6 in you and Mike's hands.

    Loving these mods.I am really not sure whether or not to keep the 7sp Gran sport c7 and just do these bolt ons or save the mods money and use it for bigger down on c8 z06 trading c7 gs 7sp?

    • @completestreetperformance
      @completestreetperformance  2 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      If you are planning to stick with just bolt on power, the C8 is the way to go by far.

  • @minchello
    @minchello 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    If just running headers and e85 on an LT1 would you stick with a 1 7/8 headers or go to to 2 inch?

    • @completestreetperformance
      @completestreetperformance  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      2 inch. Sightly more power, but will open you up to better gains in the future.

    Please Tell us about ( how you did fix the lean A/F ratio)?

    • @completestreetperformance
      @completestreetperformance  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Before I went to race the mustang, my employee accidently filled my tank with a mix of pump and e85... With no flex fuel sensor. So it ran lean because the car was fueling just for pump but needed more. Once flex fuel was activated we saw the error, drained out the fuel to just pump 93 and away the lean issue went.

      We only make headers for the 6th Gen Camaro as there were none that met our standards. With the other vehicles we have many good options.

    Kooks really showed their lack of engineering with the C8 headers. I'll stick with ARH whi still spend time designing and engineering for performance.

    • @completestreetperformance
      @completestreetperformance  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      The factory C8 headers are amazing. I was impressed to get 10 with the combo header cats and that the combo had better gains as a whole than testing the cat or header individually.

    That's pretty good, $2,500 (parts & labor) for 8 HP. (note to self: don 't waste your time and money )

    • @completestreetperformance
      @completestreetperformance  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      It was way more than 8.

    • @crodrc51able
      @crodrc51able 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Not 8hp, son. Watch the whole vid. And reducing the restrictions downstream isn’t about just 18-20 up front. If cammed, top end, power adder down the road, the numbers freed increase more than 18-20.
