Details
The Pontiac G8 is a performer, that’s for sure, with a big V8 and rear wheel drive. And it keeps things classy with 4 doors, so there’s plenty of room for the family or business associates. But it is a li’l quiet for our taste, and the log-style manifold is a major choking point in the system.
Uncork the hidden power in this highbrow performance sedan with a pair of high-flowing mandrel-bent stainless steel headers from Stainless Works. They feature beefy ⅜-inch thick mounting flanges, 1 7/8-inch primaries and 3-inch diameter slip fit connectors.
These performance connect headers are designed to bolt right up to your Stainless Works catback exhaust system (P/N PG8CB).
Notes: Includes high-flowing stainless steel catalytic converters.

‣ 3" dia Slip-Fit Connectors

Wake the Beast!
The Pontiac G8 becomes a monster with Stainless Works Long-Tube Headers and Exhaust. It sounds aggressive and powerful, and our butt dyno says we added about a million horsepower. But that’s not very scientific, so we consulted the dyno tuning experts at Big 3 Racing in Hinckley, OH. They strapped the Pontiac to the rollers for some tuning and we saw gains of 75 horsepower and 53 lb-ft of torque!
Innovative Design
We take our years of experience, and inject that knowledge into creating performance systems that maximize horsepower, torque and sound. Each system is designed for the specific vehicle with distinct features to get the most performance possible along with great fitment.
Designed For Choice
Our G8 Systems span a veritable cornucopia of options, including multiple connection points, choice of primary tube size, catted or offroad, and your connection type. We've got it all, so you can customize your ride the way you want it.
Solid Construction
Made to withstand grueling engine conditions, Stainless Works exhaust and downpipes are fabricated from 304 stainless steel, which not only resist corrosion, but is more durable than its aluminized steel or 409 stainless steel counterparts.
Features:
‣ 304 stainless steel construction
‣ TIG welded for strength
‣ Mandrel bent (no buckling) for optimal flow
‣ Designed and Made in Chagrin Falls, Ohio, USA
Choose Your Connection
Stainless Works G8 systems come in two configurations: Factory Connect and Performance Connect.
Factory Connect allows our headers or exhaust to connect to the factory exhaust or manifolds respectively. They connect to the factory location which is necked-down to accommodate fitment.
Performance Connect is designed to take advantage of performance gains not possible with the standard factory connection point. Both SW headers and SW exhaust are used in this configuration. In the case of the G8, we’ve developed a system which uses an X-pipe to create a true-dual system which doesn’t neck-down.
Primary Size
One primary size doesn't fit all applications. Sure, 1-7/8" primaries are great if your running a stock motor with no major mods. But if you've got a blower on that thing and need to push more air, get a set of 2" primaries and satisfy your need for more power. First in the industry with a 2" primaries, Stainless Works is a no brainer for long tube headers on the G8.
Increased Power
Factory manifolds can be restrictive and hold back the true potential of your ride. Stainless Works' systems unlock the power of your engine. Our long tube, free-flowing design reduces back pressure, and will bring new found power that you can feel and hear.
Limited Lifetime Warranty
Stainless Works headers and exhausts are designed to take the punishment of your motor, and are backed by a Limited Lifetime Guarantee on material and workmanship.
Install-Ready
We want to make sure installation goes as smoothly as possible, that's why Stainless Works systems come Install-Ready.
Whether clamps, O2 extensions, bolts or RTV silicone, our headers and exhausts come with all necessary accessories to make installation as smooth as possible.
