The JBA Shorty Headers in raw finish are a premier performance upgrade designed specifically for Dodge Charger, Dodge Challenger, and Chrysler 300 models equipped with the 5.7L Hemi engine from 2006 through 2024. These headers replace the restrictive factory exhaust manifolds, allowing your engine to breathe more freely and efficiently. Ideal for enthusiasts seeking improved horsepower, torque, and throttle response, JBA Shorty Headers deliver enhanced performance without compromising daily drivability or reliability.

Whether you’re upgrading for spirited street driving, towing, or occasional track use, these headers provide a solid foundation for maximizing your Hemi’s potential. Their design balances power gains with ease of installation and compatibility with factory emissions systems, making them a practical and effective choice for performance-minded owners.

Key Features

JBA Shorty Headers incorporate advanced engineering and quality materials to ensure lasting performance and durability. Key features include:

• Mandrel-bent stainless steel tubing for optimized exhaust flow and minimal restrictions
• Proprietary JBA Firecone collector design, proven in racing applications to maximize power and torque gains
• Factory-style emission connections to maintain compliance and simplify installation
• Extra thick collector domes for enhanced strength and heat management
• 3/8″ thick machined flanges with oversized exhaust ports to improve sealing and exhaust velocity
• Raw finish that allows for custom coating or ceramic coating options
• High-quality hardware included for a professional, leak-free installation

Construction & Design

Constructed from durable stainless steel, JBA Shorty Headers are built to withstand the rigors of daily driving, towing, and even racing conditions. The mandrel-bent tubing ensures smooth bends that maintain consistent diameter, reducing turbulence and backpressure. This design promotes efficient exhaust scavenging, which translates into improved engine breathing and performance.

The headers feature thick, machined flanges that provide a precise fit and superior sealing against the cylinder head, preventing exhaust leaks. The Firecone collector is a signature JBA innovation that merges exhaust pulses effectively, enhancing torque and horsepower across the RPM range where you drive most.

Performance & Sound

By replacing restrictive factory manifolds, these shorty headers significantly improve exhaust flow, resulting in noticeable gains in horsepower and torque. The Firecone collector design helps optimize exhaust scavenging, which enhances throttle response and overall engine efficiency. Additionally, the headers contribute to a more aggressive exhaust note, giving your Hemi a deeper and more refined sound without excessive drone.

Installation & Fitment

JBA Shorty Headers are designed as direct bolt-on replacements for the factory exhaust manifolds on 2006–2024 Dodge Charger, Dodge Challenger, and Chrysler 300 models with the 5.7L Hemi engine. The inclusion of factory-style emission connections ensures compatibility with existing emissions equipment, simplifying installation and maintaining legal compliance where applicable.

Installation requires basic mechanical skills and common hand tools. No major modifications or cutting are necessary, making these headers a straightforward upgrade for experienced enthusiasts and professional installers alike.
