3.2 Turbo header

[YermanCars]

Hey guys,

Was talking with my tuner/fabricator and was wondering..
If we made a jig off of my header set up, how many would be interested in purchasing one and how much would you pay?


Also we just sent it out yesterday for a high temp ceramic coating, ill post the pics when i get it back, but till then this is what the coating looks like

What do you do for heat or do you forgo that?

I've seen another solution where it blows air over the engine oil cooler. of course there is the eberspacher (sp?) gasoline heater but if you want A/C too they're fighting for the same location (smuggler's box). as I understand it there is a more modern gas-fired heater possiblity that has been used in the UK and doesn't sit in the smuggler's box.

My thoughts exactly until my recent 700 mile drive in 20 degree weather with no heat...needless to say, I like the thought of heat now.

Getting back to the point, I would be interested in something along this line with the heat option.

I'm sure there would be interest. Pricing? Perfomance Plus sells 3.2 turbo headers for $1200-$1400...perhaps less in a package. http://www.goingsuperfast.com/FORPORSCHE.html

The Protomotive system I have pulls the heat off the on engine oil cooler. Works well in Maryland where it doesn't get too cold. It does take a while to warm up the cockpit, but it is a nice steady heat.

I don't think it would be enough for a really cold climate (Michigan or Vermont, for example).

Do you guys have any pictures of the oil-cooler heating setup? This sounds like a good alternative.

[charlesbahn]

Yes, yes I do. Top picture shows heat exchanger on the on engine oil cooler (engine is rotated 90 degrees counter-clockwise on stand). Bottom pic shows the heater hoses from the exchanger that go to the flapper boxes.

Thanks Charles! Now I can get headers. I live in a warm climate, but I still like heat once in a while.
