Pontiac Header
Along with the high-performance cold air intake and high-flow air filter, the
Pontiac headers reduce backpressure for air to flow more easily out of the engine.
Whereas, the standard exhaust manifold system is prone to backpressure because
it collects the exhaust flow from each cylinder into a common area. Aside from
that, the Pontiac headers remove anti-performance exhaust dirt in the vehicle,
making sure the engine’s potential is maximized.
The Pontiac headers for various Pontiac models, such as the Pontiac Firebird,
Pontiac Grand Prix, Pontiac Montana, Pontiac Sunfire, Pontiac Grand Am, and other
Pontiac models use a more efficient design. Each of them provide every cylinder
its own mini exhaust pipe and piping exhaust pulses, to deflect the gases away
from the cylinder head into a downstream exhaust collector, so to prevent conflict
between the exhaust emissions of each one. Significantly, they allow the gases
to freely and efficiently flow out of the system for improved exhaust emission.
Backpressure on the exhaust manifold can bog down the efficient operation and
smooth power produced by the engine. But with the use of Pontiac headers, the
exhaust system can produce extra power without reducing fuel efficiency, possibly
even reducing fuel consumption due to more efficient engine performance.
Pontiac headers have computer designed bends, and large collector tubes that
add a significant amount of power, which have been proven through a dynamometer
test. These are available in quality brands like Hooker and Edelbrock. Hooker
Pontiac headers and Edelbrock headers are made from superior quality materials
for assured boost in the performance of every Pontiac models. They bolt up to
the stock cylinder heads with no modifications, making them easy to install.
