Man, I am soooo close to the ultimate setup. ;-)
We should just call the early days of the SE-R list
the Merlin Era now. Every time I hear mention of the
early list years, there is some reference to Merlin,
"Back when guys like Merlin were around" or "... when
Merlin was still on the list." :-)
SE-R content: I had a HotShot Gen 3. It fit well and
didn't leak, but the Pacesetter is a good bang for the
buck if you can't afford a HotShot.
I personally witnessed a 14.7 run by a classic with a
PS header and exhaust and an intake on drag radials.
I also saw a dyno run of a 95 200SX with 91 cam,
Courtesy exhaust, cone filter, and PS header dyno at
148 the same day that other (more heavily) modded
SR20's were dynoing between 132 and 142 and a stock
B15SE dyno'ed at 117.
I can't attribute these occurrences directly and
solely to the PS header, but I think they do work well
for the price.
My 2 cents.
