Default RE: Welcome to Club SAITO !

Here is a video of the engines trails of my P-38 with the new Turbo Headers installed.

After this video, I tweaked the tuning on the port engine (notice the pilot looking at that engine)and upon checking the needle settings after shut-down, I found that they were within two clicks of each other. Much closer than with the stock mufflers. Perhaps this is due to the slight increase in fuel pressure with these pipes, which may also explain the quicker throttle response I noticed.

I followed the installation instructions (with the Teflon tape) and also found that they were as tight hot as cold. Very nice. I don't see these coming loose.

Very nice Jim.
