Dave - Yeah, headers! I remember that dollar for dollar they were the best thing you could do for a street racing machine. But we didn't have to worry about water backing in on us. Sounds like you do (me too). Also, remember why Neil started this thread - we are going to try and figure out just how big one can go with an A4 system before the danger of being unable to "batch" the water out sets in. I'm hoping some of our young college members (Trumps, where are you?) will step in and correct me if needed. I think we need to look at how much work has to be done by the exhaust gases to lift the water up and out. Work=force x distance. Force=mass x acceleration. Ok, all you engineering students, take it away! Regards, Hanley
