Shorty Headers that Respect Low‑End Torque
Old‑school header logic still wins: short primaries keep gas speed up. On the M112 NA, that means sharper throttle and real 2–5k rpm pull without killing drivability. On the W203 C32 AMG (M112K), shorties free up mid‑range and preserve the supercharger’s low‑end punch—clean, compatible power for the street.
Shorty headers match the M112 NA’s low‑down torque bias: shorter primaries keep velocity high for quicker response and stronger mid‑range. Expect faster tip‑in and a smoother pull to redline, with ~10–15 whp potential when paired with proper tuning.*
- Retains factory catalytic converters and downstream exhaust
- No drama fitment philosophy — built for street reliability
- Pairs well with K&N drop‑in filters (M112) and a sensible ECU tune
Built for the M112K C32, these shorties sharpen response and add mid‑range while keeping factory cats and bolt‑up points intact. If you’re chasing maximum top‑end numbers, long‑tubes are the move; shorties are the quick, compatible upgrade that keep the blower’s low‑end punch.
- Direct bolt‑up to factory cat locations (no cutting cats)
- Street‑friendly sound; minimal cabin drone when paired with stock‑style exhaust
- Pairs well with K&N drop‑ins (C32/M112K airbox) and pulley/tune builds
- Gains where it counts: crisper throttle, stronger mid‑range, cleaner tone*
- Factory compatibility: designed to retain OEM catalytic converters & cat‑back
- Install: bolt‑on header swap; reuse OEM gaskets/hardware where appropriate
- Support: ships in 1 business day • 1‑Year replacement warranty
