I think AZ said that it does not work for the 250. the 250 and 350 has very different platforms

Yes. The before dyno included my exhaust and intake. The after included them plus the headers.

You'll need to contact PPE reference price. And as far as I know these will not fit a 250 from what I was told.

No problem.

FYI for everyone, I DO NOT WORK FOR PPE AND DO NOT SPEAK FOR THEM. Hence why I said to email them with any questions. Thanks!

I would also say that most people who go the extra mile to get these headers are probably those to have aftermarket exhaust
When the car is cold it is very raspy at about 2500-3000rpm and decent acceleration. After a little bit of driving it goes away.

For measuring gains, yes. I was just saying OVERALL numbers.

Just a suggestion on "how to" properly obtain the correct data.

**Might be time for them to get a stock IS350 in there hands, to complete the Dyno R&D on just the headers.

I totally agree with you. Unfortunately, we didn't have a stock midpipe to bolt on the car, only the cat-back portion. We had to make do with what we had.

I'd be curious to know if my intake made a difference or if I would make more hp using yours ..

The coating is totally necessary unless you want rusted headers. I had mine coated with the black and they look SWEET.

Sounds like a good mod that really gives HP. I"m willing to try it out. I wonder how hard the install is.
