    I've seen that come more into play when someone chooses a cam with too much overlap. Couple that with a virtually open aftermarket exhaust and the subsequent signal to lean out that the O2 will start sending and you'll likely find yourself with a burnt valve or two.

    is the firing order for the 8th gen still 1-4-3-2 ? i think the first two headers keep a rotational flow if the 1st cylinder is the one all the way to the right or closest to serp belt

    The header runners are equilength it seems. Doesn't that help with exhaust scavenging?

    I've noticed my motor sounds a lot different when it's idling now. It has a rumble and you can actually count the beats in the exhaust cycle. Before, it was all jumbled.

    mine has a rumble when i have the AC unit on.

    sometimes my exhaust seems to be pulsating, not sure if that's a good or bad thing.

    its not up anymore, if you really want to get it, it was going for $165 plus shipping which is 20 or 30 bucks. you should send him a message on ebay, his username is on the picture. ask him if he still has one in stock but still havent put up a new page for it.

    WARNING: This is for everyone who is planning on getting the Forza header. It is NOT bolt on. It requires modification to fit properly. The header requires that a small section of the cojoining header to exhaust area be removed before it can sit correctly. Otherwise, the exhaust gasket O ring will not seal correctly and will result in a nasty exhaust leak. Even after removing the section of header and fitting correctly, the O ring gasket still might not seal correctly. This can result in the already mentioned exhaust leak and maybe an annoying rattle from the vibration. The header is a one piece without a flex tube so it vibrates against the exhaust section. I solved all these problems by bringing it to my local exhaust shop to get welded permanently to the exhaust section. Good luck everyone.
