my current headers definatly leak, not sure if they did or disnt when on the RR but do now 100%...ive changed the gaskets 7 times now in under 2 weeks, but am planning to get a new set next week when im paid, then ill need to have the map tweeked wont i? which is why i was thinking about more torque hehe
im just chasing figures tbh and in the back on your seat punch...but 450/450 just has a nice ring to it

With a 2.0 lump, say its pushing around 380 to 400 hp with proper mods, what kind of torque can you expect from it?

I was thinking the torque is relatively lower on the engine as apposed to the BHP pushing the power band higher i.e. more top end performance?

Nope most EJ turbo's will match the power figure with the torque figure (bhp and lbft) - most petrol turbo engines come to that!
