Kooks Exhaust Headers 1 7/8" x 3" Cadillac CTS-V 6.2L LSA 09-12

The Cadillac CTS-V is the perfect blend of luxury and performance, appealing to drivers whom want a sports car in a more refined package. The beauty of the Cadillac CTS-V is its unexpected amount of power and torque. Like any other car, drivers quickly crave more power and a more aggressive exhaust note. An aftermarket exhaust system should be on the top of the list for any CTS-V owner wanting to make more power. Kooks exhaust replaces factory components and are designed to improve exhaust flow allowing the engine to operate more efficiently and therefore produce more horsepower and torque. A Kooks exhaust system improves upon the performance from the factory and the more aggressive exhaust is a subtle hint to the performance that lurks beneath the hood.

Exhaust headers play an important roll in a performance car. Exhaust headers bolt to the cylinder head and direct exhaust gasses immediately leaving the combustion chamber from the engine to the collector and eventually the exhaust pipe. Factory exhaust manifolds are not created to maximize performance or offer an attractive sound. Cost reduction and ease of manufacture both take precedence in mass production. These compromises made to please the average consumer greatly reduce the power felt by the automotive enthusiast who seeks more horsepower, torque, and sound. Unlike most factory "log" exhaust manifolds Kooks headers flow individually from each cylinders exhaust port before merging at the collector. Headers take exhaust flow and performance to the next level beyond just a catback exhaust system. Many factors must be taken into consideration when designing exhaust headers: pipe diameter, length of primaries, stepped or non-stepped design, and collector style, all while needing to fit within the confines of the crowded engine bay. After market exhaust headers can have a huge impact not only on power and sound, but the power band as well. Most Kooks headers are available with several different tube and collector diameters depending on your power goals and driving style. Kooks headers take your exhaust system to the next level and will provide more horsepower and torque because of with their increased flow.
