This is a great solution for those of you that have cracked exhaust manifolds on your F360 or just want more power and sports car sound. Fabspeed has high performance headers that are a direct bolt-on replacement for the factory exhaust manifolds. Fabspeed headers are made of T304 Stainless Steel and incorporate a Formula 1 Indy Car high velocity merge collector. The concept of a merge collector is to build velocity through the venturi effect. Air passing through an hourglass-shaped venturi accelerates as it passes through the narrowest part of the venturi then slows down and expands as it emerges on the other side. This expansion creates a pressure drop, in effect siphoning air into the low-pressure side of the venturi and drawing more volume through the venturi. In a header collector, the venturi effect improves exhaust velocity and scavenging, which has effects on cylinder filling, the intake tract, and camshaft timing.

In the standard collector, the primary tubes are cut off flat and dump directly into the collector. In the merge collector, the primary tubes are sectioned and merge into a cone shape before the collector necks down to its minimum diameter. This design helps to shape the flow of gasses and improves the transition from the primaries to the collector, reducing the effect of the change in area on velocity.

I have attached the some pictures displaying the Fabspeed Headers and the difference between a standard collector and our investment cast lost wax cast merge collector.

The Fabspeed Maxflo 360 headers will work and compliment any brand of catalytic converter or rear muffler systems.

I'm just curious as to why these are so much more expensive than ones for a Porsche. I'm assuming it's made of the same material and doesn't require that much more stainless steel to manufacture. Is it because it's for a Ferrari? R&D? Serious question...

What Porsche header are you comparing the F360 header to?

The Fabspeed 997 Sport Headers $1,565. Just wondering why they are $1,000 more on a Ferrari. I don't have a 360, but I've been looking at the Fabspeed headers for my car and I was just curious as to why the ones for the 360 cost so much more.

The Ferrari F360 headers are much more labor intense for our fabricators to build and polish for final delivery. Also the the header flanges for the F360 are investment cast lost wax cast which are more expensive.
