Ninja,

you've been in my car

It has gasflowed headers, and the result required a lot of extra fuel - the imrovement came right through the range - I couldn't say that it made the car specifically more torquey - probably helped the top end more as it had better gas flow at the high end, which big torque doesn't need.

It is possible that with this change your car will run lean.

Are you not considering an ECU change? This can definately be customised to improve your torque.

Trout

PS My car has about 30-40bhp more than when you were last in it
