6th Gen Camaro Speed Engineering Header and X Pipe Install

[@redherring395]

Looks good!! Been awhile since I did a header install, but I've always had good luck with Stage 8 locking header bolts.

[@chriswarzecha7706]

Dude, what is that rattle sound that starts at 9:03? Right before you flip to track mode. I have the same sound and it's driving me bat sh*t crazy! My rattle goes away when the motor warms up after about 30 seconds. It's always loudest at cold start. Then the noise comes back when starting off in low rpm. Or lets say 2nd gear at a stop sign. (high load low RPM) Dealer can't "hear" the noise. For me, it sounded like top end stuff, on drivers side. but I'm reaching. It's driving me crazy for 2 years now. Have any insight?

[@EssMotorsports]

I did have a rattle which was my exhaust hitting the Halo crossmember. I had to get some thick washers from McMaster Carr to space it down another .20" and that took care of it. In untuned cars the car goes into Cat warm up mode which dumps extra fuel and retards timing. That is why camaros sound loud on startup until warms up a little.

[@EssMotorsports]

I would check exhaust hitting something tho as my rattle was only at low rpm once moving frequency was high enough u didn't hear it

Nice job, looks like you and I have the same exact set up from the halo brace to the rotofab. I did go with spark plug boot covers on factory wires and had the headers ceramic coated and also added a set of high flow cats. Can't wait to see your next move.

[@EssMotorsports]

I had to space my halo brace down another .250" to make little extra clearance for exhaust. No issues now. Did you have to do that?

What clamps exactly did you use bro ? I’m the process of installing mines Speed engine headers with x connection to NPP exhaust just like your set up the clamps they come with are junk. Thanks in advance she sounds like beast!

[@EssMotorsports]

In the description/ links its the two Band clamps, Walker exhaust part numbers. I ordered them from rockauto or summit racing. But I did use a couple of the clamps they sent on the header collector joint as there was not enough room for the wider band clamp. Use a breaker bar to tighten.

[@EssMotorsports]

I'm getting the same set up but ordered the steel gaskets. Those shouldn't be a problem will they? As far as clearance?

How are the wires also any problems?

[@EssMotorsports]

Clearances shouldn't be a problem but from what other youtubers were saying is to use the OEM gaskets. They were cheap on Rockauto. The Aceel wires seemed to work fine. Haven't ran the car much yet tho.

The third rear O2 bung is for a wideband sensor. You delete the rear O2 sensors and only use the front two into the header collectors. Then tune will fix any cel.

[@andresmedina2827]

Did you get any codes after installing your lt2 intake? I just installed mine today its ported but im using the stock lt1 tb and i got a code p0443 and p0458 , it runs good tho ?

[@EssMotorsports]

I didn't get any codes. I just did a quick search on those codes tho and it looks like its your evap purge valve. The thing that goes into your intake right next to your throttle body. Check the connector. If you disconnected it its probably not seated all the way back in.

Another really useful video. Was wondering if you think I’d be okay going with another brands x pipe with the SE headers. Only reason is because SE x pipes are outta stock

[@EssMotorsports]

That is funny u ask this as I was doing this last night helping a buddy. Can it be done yes, is it your best and most cost effective solution... NO. The easiest is going to be SE headers and midpipe together. Just installed corsa x pipe with SE headers with custom connection pipes and it was a pain and it fits just OK. The only downside to SE midpipe is you will probably have to use the Halo tunnel brace but that is also a quality piece!

[@jconn124]

@@EssMotorsports hey on another note. I am about to finish porting my LT2 manifold and bolting up the LT5 throttle body to it (no adapter). Planning on getting the headers and flex fuel kit soon and then doing a tune after that. Do you think I’m good to run LT2&LT5 without a tune for the time being (3-4 weeks)?

[@EssMotorsports]

Not expert here but with that said, You should be fine for a while. The biggest spot where fueling changes with the 95mm tb is at part throttle from what I've seen. So take it easy and let the car learn that area. The car will limit itself at the top end as it will see the extra airflow from the lt2 intake. So probably won't feel much faster until tune.

I haven't had experience with other brands. Seems like Texas speed is a popular one tho.

No I wouldn't keep the secondary cats. My suggestion would be to get some aftermarket high flow cats and incorporate them into the Speed Engineering kit. Might be easier to buy another brand header with cats already incorporated, but it will be pricey!

Yeah I just used 2x4s cut at 14" long. Then just alternate the boards. I used 2.5" long screws. U have to pre drill every hole so it doesn't crack. 2 screws per corner criss crossing them so they won't hit screws below.

Probably cost like 60-70 bucks with boards and big box of screws. You need like 10 boards 10ft long because of waste at the ends.
