So.....Is there a difference in extractors between standard 50h's and SS/H@SV's???

Yes. Part of the 185i package (so all HSV models and HSV Enhanced cars) receive extractors vs the standard exhaust manifolds.

they never sell for much. i sold some earlier this year and thought i would get a bit for them. only got about $60. but they are better than the cast manifolds. a mate of mine put a set of headers on his girlfriends vr calais 5l and it made a huge difference. not as much difference as the exhaust did thought. but it still wound out a lot quicker..

The stock VN header finished up very early in the VP's but HSV kept using them in all the 180/185 kw clubsports untill the last VS's. The HSV ones have a flat flange and the VN type have one of those press fit flanges, that's the only difference. They were made by H&M and the build quality is pretty shonky, I took my apart and rebuilt them all the way through but only because I needed something to learn to weld on.
They wont do much because they are all the wrong length to do anything special except increase the flow a little, I'm going to expect 5rwkw from them but that's about it, but they will hold me over until I have some custom headers.
Oh yeah, I got mine for 50 bucks on ebay without the Y section. sometimes they go for heaps sometimes not much so you have to wait around a few weeks to get a deal
Yeah, theres a set on ebay 4 sale atm and I just noticed they were exactly the same as the 1's on mine and when I saw they were 'H@SV extractors', I though, "So? they're the same?"...
Your VP must be one of the very first VP's because I think maybe only a few hundred cars? got the VN headers, it wasn't many anyway
