Shorty headers do anything on 4.6?

Feb 13, 2005 3 Replies

i have a stock 2000 gt 4.6 with magnaflow cat-backs. no other modifications at all. i was wondering if shorty headers would do anything for power or sound. the cat-backs made a very noticible difference. i am looking at FRPP headers. or BBK possibly. i will keep the stock h-pipe. i don't like the sound of x-pipes.


There is an article about this including dyno results in the March issue of

5.0 Mustang&Super Fords. On a stock 04GT, dyno tests show that you will lose a bit of bottom end torque, but gain a bit at high end.

You want a louder exhausts? Put on some glass-pack mufflers. You'll get a louder sound then perhaps you want.
