A.R.H. 5.0L Header Pics & Dyno Sheet

[Red Turtle]

Very nice gains, and with Tune/CAI should be somewhere in the neighborhood of 435-445rwhp! BTW, these must sound wicked at 7000rpms!

Still can't believe that we actually got what we had been asking Ford to do for years! Mid 400hp N/A 32V car, great job.

Sound clips please?

Also, a question for evo...

Do you guys have any dyno numbers with CAI, headers, catback, tune, in other words basic bolt-ons.

IF these headers are good for 411 rwhp without any other mods and without a tune, what would the car make with all of the above?

I believe they said on another site that it is good for a total of 435rwhp. Theirs may be SAE where this may be STD, I am not sure

Be careful adding up HP gains....really need to see a set of cars with exhaust/CAI/tune/etc on the dyno to get an good idea of what the average person will see when they are done with those kinds of modifications.

Still....425-435 RWHP doesn't seem out of the question, based on what we already know.

great setup and nice #'s!

 

[ON D BIT]

....cams and heads and long tubes and tune and catback and cai and pulley???

Is there a chance at 480 rwhp with bolt ons plus cams and race ported heads???:shrug:

Al P made 597 I believe with his built 5.5. What is the new 5.0 worth?

 

[Ry_Trapp0]

the new 5.0l has much better flowing heads than the R/GT/GT500 heads, not to mention the yates NASCAR pieces(ford engineers said possibly the best flowing heads on a production car), so no doubt at all that it will best the 5.4l's HP/liter.

boy and here i thought ford spent quite a bit of time designing the new factory headers for max performance and power gains wouldn't be much with aftermarket ones.

so much for that!

great numbers

That's what I thought about my old 86 5.0 - had headers from the factory, but the new one's do look pretty thought out.

Headers ,full exhaust,intakeand tune will give you 400+ to the tire real world. Depending on dyno ,air and fuel type. But the gains you see under the curve(where you actuially drive the car) are also impressive.

Hey Todd- Still looking to get into one of these? I am so tempted man but I love both my cars I have right now, if I had to let one go it would be the E55 though:rockon:

With these headers, tune and a good CAI, I dont see why they could not hit 450rwhp.
