Default Kooks Long Tube Headers and Catted H Pipe horse power gain.

Well finally got the car tuned after finishing my Kooks long tube header and catted H pipe install. My car is a 2007 GT and only has CAI and exhaust upgrade with Ford racing mufflers by Borla. My HP before the Kooks install was 282 RWHP and after ended up with 299 RWHP. The 282 was with just the CAI and mufflers. Still running on 87 pump gas. With my under drive pulleys installed this week I am hopeing to get over that 300 mark at the wheels. I guess this isn't bad at all for completely stock engine with only CAI and exhaust. I am estimating that should be about 345 or so at the fly wheel since I have a 5spd. I know for all you people with Superchargers those are some low numbers but bear with me. I am hopeing to get the Supercharger in the next year or so. LOL

Just wanted to put the numbers up there for anyone looking to do similar install on their car.

I did consider the higher octane but wanted to keep the 87 for now. It is like mabe 4hp difference and it just wasn't worth it to me to just drive the car around town and to shows and stuff.

Kooks are expensive. I got the Kooks Long tubes and catted h pipe for 1430.00 that includes tax and shipping. I ordered them from Modular Depot here in KY. The catted h adds a little more due to the cats but the sound is well worth it.

You suck. LOL I wish I could have got that kind of deal. I paid exactly what was on Kooks website and Modular depot split the shipping. I know they made a few dollars but o well. The are great guys and have always done me right. They have done a great job tunning both mine and my brother's car.
