psd headers?

does anyone know if there is such a thing as headers for a diesel? i know you would still have to join the 2 back up to go into the turbo. i wonder if it would help or hurt it.

Can't say that I have either seen or heard of such a beast. Can't see how they would really help, because, like you said, they will still have to join back up at the turbo.

it really wouldnt work too well you wanna keep as much heat in the exaust to the turbo and with the drive pressures and how tight the bends would have to be it would be hard to keep them from leaking.

i wouldn't think it would be any more trouble to make a set than what it would be for anything else. as far as the heat issue would go i think you would be able to keep more heat in the pipes. acutally i would think that the engine might run a bit cooler due to the heat staying in the pipes. but who knows i am not a exhaust builder. i could but i am not.
