What gain can I expect from 1 3/4 SLP headers??

I'm getting 1 3/4 inch SLP headers and am wondering what sort of gains people have notices with them. Could you feel the difference??

Thanks for the time

Robert

I gained about 3 tenths in the 1/4 mile and 2 tenths 0-60 mph on the G-Tech. From 2700 rpm and up is were I felt the power kick in, lets just say you will have a lot of traction problems in first gear then you did before.

When I installed my TES headers (1 5/8") my ETs dropped by .3, and that was on a stock motor. I bet you can see at least that since you are installing larger ones, but you will loose some power below 3000.
