[QUOTE="98 Saleen Cobra, post: 15090596, member: 52734"] Well boost isn't a measure of power, it's a measure of restriction. What you really need to find out is blower rpm for the pulley setup before and after.. That will tell you if you the headers did anything.. Mind you I'm all about headers.. But you did it wrong. You needed to add the headers with the old pulley setup to see true gains. You don't keep boost the same to do the comparison as boost is a measure of restriction. SO.. If the 2.6 upper only spins the blower to say 16000rpm and you made x rwhp.. Then you add long tubes.. Still spinning 16000rpm and you gain 40rwhp, that's headers doing the work. Or if you did the same thing but then switched the pulley combo like you did and the 3.0 upper/4lb lower still equal 16000rpm for the blower then again the headers did the work.. I have a feeling you added the different pulley combo and now your blower is actually turning harder we'll say 18000rpm.. You did it based off of boost, and LT's drop boost as it opens up the exhaust side which allows less restriction... Hope I didn't lose ya there lol [/QUOTE]
