- 09 VE SS Sportwagon
Hi guys,
Just after some quick advice from those who have experience in this area. Im looking at getting some Xforce headers and cats for my VE SS Sportwagon. They'll bolt up to my HiTech 2.5" exhaust and ill do the install at home. The tune will be done by Dave at Silverwater Automotive, who has tuned some pretty serious cars ive owned before, and ive found his work to be of the highest quality.
Anyway, im pretty sure ill stop here in regards to mods; no cams or forced induction; its just got a VCM OTR. So what size headers should i go? Im leaning towards the 1 5/8 as the car has to be drivable and this diameter is more suited to these mods. What do you experienced guys reckon? Also, will the car be ok to drive an hour and a half from Gosford area to Silverwater after ive done the install, as it'll be untuned?
Ive looked a Pacemaker and the others, but ive decided to stick with Xforce, as they're thick walled stainless, bolt up to the factory position and i can get em for $1200 with hi flow cats. Id rather buy Australian, but cant justify it atm.
Anyway, thanks for any advice,
Shaun.
