Real freakin nice... If I just waited a few weeks, I could've had THESE prices... but NOOOOOOOO, I had to be the first one to buy 'em. That's the price I pay for being an impulse buyer!

[Jim]

But which set is on your car, Logan? The 1 5/8" x 2.5" OR the 1 3/4" x 3" ?

A few hp here, a few there, and I just might have to keep this car after all!

-Jim

[Logan]

My car has the 1 5/8" primaries with 2.5" collector. The larger primaries and collector are intended for supercharged applications.

Best part is, no price difference!!

[Daveinsa]

I saw them on the MM's at Ennis. They are sweet.

Will the headers fit in an 02 Crown Vic?

Dave

[Logan]

To be honest, not sure. Give Nick at Kook's a call. :)

[Petrograde]

Man, you guys are killin' me with all this great stuff! I'll prob'ly be divorced soon! but, I'll have a kick ass MM! :lol:

[BillyGman]

the Supercharger, the bigger 1 3/4" primary tubes will most likely give a better increase in acceleration high up in the RPM band, however will also sacrifice some power down low in the RPM scale. Therefore since the Marauder's weak point is off the line acceleration due to the small displacement of the engine, I think that Logan's choice of the 1 5/8" primaries are the better way to go for MM's that aren't supercharged. Now the only problem for me is to find a way to raise the cash, and then find a competent exhaust place who will also be willing to perform tasks such as raising the ebgine off the otor mount, and removing the A/C compressor as well as the starter which ofcourse be required for the installation(and I'd hate to let that get in my way because I bet that this set up gives a nice "seat-of-the pants" difference in the MM's acceleration).

[Constable]

LaRocca's is taking my ride in on the 20th to do the install... can't wait. I don't even have them on yet, but i can tell you that this was a great investment.

Well said my man!! Got my vote for that............:lol:

[TripleG]

Newbe question. Kooks or Reinheart. I had Reinheart's stage one installed today and Mike the owner said the exhaust was SH-- and should be replaced from the Cats back. Any suggustions?

George

[amerikan]

I know the numbers are somewhere... but if someone can please tell me what the total gains are to the wheels... full kooks setup, thanks.

[Macon Marauder]

I think Logan reported a 50 RWHP and a 35 ft/lb torque increase.

[Logan]

You need to look harder, it's right on the main page of the Kook's forum.... Click the Dyno Results thread... The short and skinny of it is peak rear wheel number went up by 29hp, 15ft/lbs. What's more important that peaks though is the curves. At 6000rpm, it's making 50 rear wheel horse power more than the stock exhaust :eek: and at 5200rpm, it's making 35ft/lbs extra at the rear wheels over stock.

The stock exhaust system is a dead duck past 5000rpm on these cars...

Logan, Hello.

Great prices on the cool Hooks stuff!

What would a person do if they were'nt sure one way or the other whether they might go to Supercharging down the road?

Would you go with the 1 3/4 primaries & 3" collector just in case?

:help:

Hey, is anybody there?! Is this a forbidden question?

I am just trying to think about the options!

Thanks!

[Logan]

Ooops, sorry! I missed your post... :)

If you're even considering getting supercharged, go ahead and get the 1 3/4 tubes... Certainly won't hurt enough to notice on a NA car...

[kurly]

OK, THANKS!

[BillyGman]

I'm not trying to start a war here w/Logan, but I think the best thing to do is to call Nick and ask him about this because I've read articles about headers that claim that 1 3/4" primariry tubes on small block V8 engines will give you better top end power, but sacrifice low RPM power. And that might be why Kook's makes the smaller 1 5/8 primary tube version headers for N/A Marauder like yours and mine. Unless ofcourse it wouldn't bother you to lose a little low end power. But that seems to be what these cars lack to begin w/due to the small discplacement V8 that's under the hood. So I'd think about that , and call Nick if I were you.

[kurly]

No problem guys. I appreciate all opinions and comments!

I usually like to start with my friends here at MM.net and get their thoughts before I contact one of our supporting vendors. At least so I can talk about the subject semi-intelligently!

[BillyGman]

that's a good way to look at it. Now that you've received a couple different viewpoints, you can aproach this topic from two different angles when you speak w/Nick on the phone.;)

[MarauderHI]

What an awesome deal. Sure glad I found this website.

MarauderHi - Welcome to the MM site. :welcome:

[Eric91Z]

Will the headers fit in an 02 Crown Vic?

Dave

I don't think they will fit the '02 CV, but you can call them and check. I think they will only fit the '03+ because of the front suspension, frame, and steering changes.

[MM03MOK]

What an awesome deal. Sure glad I found this website.OLD THREAD ALERT! Those prices are 18 months old!

[DEFYANT]

This is a good place for Kooks to come in and update the ole Member Pricing thread.

[hdwrench]

OLD THREAD ALERT! Those prices are 18 months old!
so prices may be lower since there are more MM's now?

[FastMerc]

I tried to contact KOOKS last week but site was down,I could not reach by phone,will try again this week or next.

Damn, got a kid on the way, a wife that thinks that cars are just for getting from point A to point B, no2 group buys, suspension buys, and now the headers. The "I'm just a man" excuse is only going to take me so far (although its worked pretty good to date).

[FastMerc]

I think they are in the process of moving. :D That would explain it!

[jawz101]

i wonder if now is a good time to ask what the full header-pipe kit is set at for members?
