PowerGo Motorsport Exhaust Header 16ga Steel

Description

Product Overview

The PowerGo Motorsport Exhaust Header is engineered as a direct replacement for factory manifolds, offering a bolt‑on fit for stock exhaust pipes. Crafted from 16‑gauge (1.5 mm) cold‑rolled mild steel, each tube is mandrel‑bent to preserve flow efficiency and minimize turbulence. The head flange is laser‑cut from 3/8‑inch (9.5 mm) thick steel plates and flattened by hydraulic press, ensuring a precise, rigid mating surface. All joints are TIG‑welded for superior crack resistance, and the entire assembly is coated in a high‑temperature black paint that endures up to 500 °C (932 °F). Dimensions measure 22 × 15 × 7 inches and the unit weighs 19 lb, making it a robust yet manageable upgrade for a wide range of performance vehicles.

Usage

Designed for daily drivers, track enthusiasts, and weekend racers, this header excels in environments where both reliability and power gains are essential. Install it on any compatible make that uses standard stock exhaust piping; the bolt‑on design eliminates the need for custom brackets or extensive fabrication. Ideal for street‑legal builds seeking smoother throttle response, as well as for track days where mid‑range torque improvements translate to faster lap times.
