Anybody with Dynatech headers do a before and after dyno test? I am going to guess they are worth at least 20 rw hp. But I would like to see some real world dyno numbers if anyone has them. Thanks.

PS - any vendors actually have the Dynatech Magnum headers in stock. I called around today and couldnt find any place that actually had a set in stock including Dynatech.

wow, very impressive. looks like a solid 20-25 rw hp and rw torque gain all the way across the rpm range. did you run the high flow cats with that? thru the stock exhaust or an upgraded exhaust. sorry for all the questions. thanks again for the info.

No, that was a strictly stock baseline vs stock with just headers, that was still with true stock catback, those we run on the same day on the same rollers

1st magnum srt-8,

Remember that the SRT-8 has a much better exhaust manifold from the factory, so it is unlikely that the SRT-8s will see has much gain from these headers. I would imagine there is still something to gain, but it won't be as much.

It would be interesting to see what kind of gains would be seen on an SRT-8. That has a better exhaust but is also flowing more through it. The gains with the extra displacement might be surprizing.
I have discussed the SRT-8 application directly with Dynatech. They are planning on a system for the 6.1L Hemi, but they have a few projects ahead of that development. There will be changes in the 6.1L system. Right off the bat, the current 2.5" pipe coming out of the current dynatech cats will not mate to the SRT-8 2.75" exhaust without a compromise. I actually hope to hear back from Dynatech in several weeks about development of the system. I have offered my SRT-8 for measurements.

I was able to find a system at one of the Dynatech dealers a few days ago. I should have it on the SRT8 next week. We will fabricate the headers to mate directly to the 2.75 in. SRT8 exhaust. Dynatech does make good stuff but they are not real fast about R&D and production changes. I would be surprised if they had a dedicated SRT8 system before the end of this year. Will report what kind of dyno numbers the headers add. Right now with the cold air kit we are getting 372 rw hp. I would be happy to be anywhere over 390 rw hp. We will see.

We look forward to the results. You may want to call Dynatech and ask them if they could get you a set of 3" in/out cats with that flange on them. Maybe pricey, but it will allow you to mate up with any exhaust system. I am getting Magnaflow to validate their new SRT-8 system on the Magnum next monday, so I am very interested in Dynatech if they can provide a 3" out system.
