Keep my 1 3/4 headers or upgrade to 1 7/8?

Ok guys. Ive read a few threads on the matter but I wanted to see more specific results specifically dealing with a supercharged motor. Please let me know what you recommend and why. Also I'd love to hear any personal experiences. Thanks.


Motor and mods:
Vortech v2 si trim 8psi 610/570 to the wheels, 6500 redline
LS3, forged 10.1:1cr
LS3 heads, stock with ported exhaust
TSP cam 231/236 114lsa
LS3 intake stock
TSP 1 3/4 headers with 3in x pipe
4L65E w/Circle D 3200 triple disc converter and 3.42 gears

Bigger motor on boost? Def the 1 7/8". BUT since you already have the 1 3/4" it's not really worth it. If you had to choose between the two sure.

I've been tempted because i have a credit account with a shop and it won't cost me money out of pocket. If i sell my headers and some parts I'm looking at about a $700 for the LG 1 7/8 headers and x pipe. Was wondering if it's worth it tho, still $700

Blowers get big headers in my camp.

Thanks for the advice everyone. I've decided to keep my headers for now and go with a bigger intercooler and a 3.4 pulley which I already have. This should give a few extra ponies.

Larger heads would have been a waste of money anyway IMO.

Defo made the right choice.
