These factory cast logs suffer from poor volumetric efficiency and thermal retention, leading to increased exhaust gas temperatures (EGTs) and localized cylinder head heat soak under sustained high-rpm loads. Furthermore, the uneven exhaust pulses colliding in the standard H-pipe create turbulence, impeding exhaust velocity and choking the LS engine's natural top-end power delivery.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \n  \u003ch3\u003eThe Engineering Solution\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eThis long-tube header and 3-inch X-pipe package addresses these flow restrictions through precision tubular engineering. Constructed from heavy-gauge T-304 stainless steel, the 1 7\/8-inch primary tubes provide an optimal cross-sectional area to maintain exhaust gas velocity while rapidly evacuating high-volume cylinder pressures. These primaries merge into race-oriented 3.00-inch collectors to drastically improve scavenging efficiency. The included 3-inch X-pipe synchronizes exhaust pulses from both engine banks, increasing the Venturi effect to pull exhaust gases from the cylinders faster. Finished with a polished surface and robust stainless flanges, this kit ensures a secure, leak-free seal utilizing the provided multi-layer steel gaskets, stainless brackets, heavy-duty 3.00-inch clamps, and the correct 12-piece hardened stainless steel manifold bolts.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \n\n  \u003ch3\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003ctable width=\"100%\" style=\"border-collapse: collapse; border: 1px solid #e0e0e0; font-size: 14px;\"\u003e\n    \u003ctr style=\"background-color: #f9f9f9;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFitment\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px;\"\u003e2005-2013 Chevrolet Corvette\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEngine \/ Chassis\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px;\"\u003eLS2, LS3, LS7 \/ C6\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr style=\"background-color: #f9f9f9;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eStock Output\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px;\"\u003e400-505 hp \/ 400-470 lb-ft (Approx)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePart Number\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px;\"\u003eN\/A\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003c\/table\u003e\n \n  \n  \u003ch3\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cul\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e2005-2007 Chevrolet Corvette Base (6.0L V8 LS2)\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e2008-2013 Chevrolet Corvette Base (6.2L V8 LS3)\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e2010-2013 Chevrolet Corvette Grand Sport (6.2L V8 LS3)\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e2006-2013 Chevrolet Corvette Z06 (7.0L V8 LS7)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3\u003eThe Chevrolet Caliber\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eUpgrading the C6 exhaust architecture yields an aggressive American V8 exhaust note while drastically improving the mid-range torque and high-rpm horsepower required for high-performance track driving and spirited street applications.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"VelocityMax","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49751127392504,"sku":"DS-EBYI9B4DJ","price":589.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0800\/1290\/2648\/files\/exhaust-headers-and-x-pipe-for-chevrolet-corvette-c6-2005-2013-1_f92910b4-c499-4d12-9c44-fbca840e4625.webp?v=1782938545","url":"https:\/\/performancechiptuning.com\/es\/products\/exhaust-headers-and-x-pipe-for-chevrolet-corvette-c6-2005-2015","provider":"Performance Chip Tuning","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
