Don’t buy Headers for your 2020+ Shelby GT500! Here’s why..

[@realgundamsonly]

thanks for this video. saved me a lot of money!!

[@ItalianStallion410]

First off thanks for tapping in and watching fam I couldn’t believe it until I watched every car make a pull on the dyno kinda crazy to think about hope this video can help you in anyway if anyone has any questions feel free to message me! God speed!

[@tkostang]

We’re these runs done on the same day and time of day? Similar DA? Just started the video so you may answer this

[@tkostang]

That metal is cast aluminum…. It gets hot once it’s heat soaked. Put a big torch to it. The lighter isn’t a large enough heat source to make it heat soak. Pretty sure all modern superchargers wouldn’t get hot with a lighter.

[@ItalianStallion410]

@@tkostang yes all that was very similar before I made the comparison

[@MidwestMotor]

I wonder what Shorty headers would do! Shortys give you more low end bump. This was great video! 🏁🏁🏁🏁🏁🏁

[@ItalianStallion410]

I can do that

[@eddiegomez4381]

Much appreciated information brother. I have a 2020 making 905 with factory headers and now staying that way.

[@ItalianStallion410]

Glad I could help brother

[@owais-yp6xs]

With stock cats & blower?

[@coastalparasail]

I wouldn’t have guessed that , long tube headers sure do make those 5.2s sound good though . 🇺🇸💪🏼🐎

[@ItalianStallion410]

Couldn’t agree more

[@NTregs]

That’s actually wild to see, Can’t wait for you guys to line them up!

[@ItalianStallion410]

Oh yeah we can. Race them prolly this weekend

[@918sonicsupra]

Thanks for the info, I’ve been debating on getting headers and this definitely helped me

[@ItalianStallion410]

Glad I could help you out 🙏🏽🙏🏽

[@Stangkeezy]

Crazy to see the results. My local shop also said the same thing that headers is pointless for my gt500. Appreciate the video!

[@ItalianStallion410]

Glad they noticed the same thing

[@damonmosley2858]

Glad I saw this video. I've been debating on getting headers for my 500 but I see people making 1000 with the stock manifold. This is a good comparison

[@ItalianStallion410]

Thank you!

[@Mkiv-A80]

What was the boost level between the two? How much timing?? With headers you would be running less boost, less stress on the motor That’s a bit of misinformation there saying that headers don’t work……not sure you understand how things work bud

[@ItalianStallion410]

So 2 of the same exact builds same pully same tuner same E85 and one just has headers and shows a little less power how is that miss information I have had 5 different shops message me and said they saw the same results and they don’t recommend headers for GT500… I know how things work I don’t think you can understand it I am also not gonna show all my tuners date that he put into the car so some bum shops can steal it yeah no thanks I am good just trying to save people money but go ahead but headers for your GT500 if you have one and lmk how much more power it makes !!

[@Mkiv-A80]

Right, again What are the boost levels and timing on both……..that’s the only way to truly tell between the two cars Guaranteed the one with headers is running less boost and likely timing making the same power, But yeah, continue on spreading misinformation fella

[@ItalianStallion410]

@@Mkiv-A80 both make 22 pounds of boost I wouldn’t made the video if the numbers weren’t the same but okay you know more than me also had like 10 different shop message me and they said they saw the same results so thanks have a nice day

Great video Bro. Keep putting out vids and hope to see you keep growing.

[@ItalianStallion410]

Thanks brother

[@gordydexter2615]

Whipple SC Gen 5 & Gen 6 don’t heat soak. After 4-5 hard pulls I can put my hand on the top of the SC. You cannot do that with the OEM SC. I think you would get more power with 1 7/8 headers verses the 2.0. Good video Jake!!! Thanks! Cheers Brother‼️👍👊💪😎🇺🇸

[@ItalianStallion410]

I haven’t seen a GT500 go with 1 7/8 everyone I have seen has gotten the 2in once’s and yeah whipple lid always stays cool

[@DerekBaranProductions]

ZEEEEEUS

[@itsdillon04]

I honestly believe it’s because of the fact that you got 2” headers, which is weird. Most people that are boosted or preparing for boost use 2” headers, but I think you lost too much back pressure, probably woulda picked up if you would’ve gotten 1 7/8”

[@ItalianStallion410]

Yeah it honestly might

[@Shelby_Moe5.2]

I do a lot honestly I run a resturant full time on top of doing videos plus my merch page and coffee I sell I also buy and flip parts all the time I live at home so my expenses are low so I can start buying rental houses also getting my real estate license done now. I try and stay busy with multiple sources of income

[@marcasswellbmd6922]

I have been watching a lot of videos on NA stuff and Boosted too.. And it seems like keeping your stock headers and just getting a blower is the way to go.. Especially if you want to pass inspection in NJ every 2 years like I need too.. What I am getting at is I see a lot of people doing header's Intakes and E85.. And when you really dig deep you can see the power you are getting is more from the E85 than it is from the Headers and a cold air with a ported Intake.. It's that Ejuice that is really making the power. The $4000 to $5000 PPL spend on the Headers, Intake, and Cold air, only really nets you like another 30hp to 40hp at best without the E85.. And seriously if you are Not good friends with a good tuner that you can actually call and speak with... Don't Do it To Yourself...

[@ItalianStallion410]

Yeah I feel that and yeah the stock manifolds are really good

[@realgundamsonly]

If I wanted my car to reach around 800hp- 825hp, and sound great what mods would you focus on? I saw the video with the exhaust from Canada which sounded deep and almost cammed like. I would like to have my 2 year old in back seat so I don't want him to go deaf lol😂 If you was me, what would you do then for mods? Thanks again

[@ItalianStallion410]

Hahaha sorry Mike 😂😂 it sounds good af tho

[@414Chevy]

Seems counterintuitive. Graphs don't lie though. Maybe the headers are over scavenging? Some of the fuel/air charge going out the exhaust. That's the only thing I can think of. Very good info. I'm just a Po Mach 1 boy too.

[@Coyote9smilespergallon]

I can tell you for sure on the Whipple Gen5 after a pull or back 2 back get out put your hand on the blower,, stock will burn you= heat soak,, touch the Gen5 it’s cold!!! I mean you can put your face on it. No heat soak, that means way more than the 75hp you spoke of, so heat soak causes detonation, bad news, headers GT500 come with much better factory headers than the GTs because headers make a big diff on my GT Gen5 Whipple. Also on the dyno make sure the DA and temps etc are the same that can make big hp difference too

[@ItalianStallion410]

Yeah the whipple always stays nice and cold

[@6598901]

​@@ItalianStallion410 sounds good , As for dyno number it wont make more different , but what about performancr? Did the stock manifold perform better in street race than LTH?
