Not so much with these. The collector is not properly sized, IMO. I would never build a 4-1 header that dumps everything into a large chamber. I much prefer convergent and divergent collector designs.
However, this won't matter in this application as the engine will have a VERY large supercharger eventually. The pressure ratios will be very high, so dumping the exhaust gases out in high volume will work just fine, even if it will suffer from less than ideal effects when running without forced induction.
