MAC header torque gain?

I read on the MAC website the headers are supposedly good for around 28 HP at the rear wheels. Does anyone know how much torque? Does anyone have a dyno chart with before and after? Thanks.

I don't think MAC mid-lengths will give 28rwhp. I would say around 10-15rwhp. It also depends on the other mods you have.

I noticed big gains higher up in speed with mine, like at 80MPH I can punch in now and it will sit you back in the seat pretty good and flys to 130 like nothing. I am very pleased.

So do you think they took away or added anything on the low end for torque and horsepower?

I don't think you will actually loose hp or tq on the low end. But it may just feel that way because of the gain up top.
