Boostjunkie Posted November 13, 2007 Author Share Posted November 13, 2007 +1. How come no integrated UP? Because headers are seldom the first mod that people do. Almost everyone does an uppipe first so they already have that ready to go. In addition installing a header while leaving the uppipe in place is quick and easy. I'm also a selfish bastage and I plan on using my header wth my rotated turbo setup... something other people can chose to do as well. So in short you get more flexibility without the integrated UP.

Infamous1 Posted November 14, 2007 Share Posted November 14, 2007 Very nice! If only I wouldn't lose the rumbe... On a side note it does really mellow the tone out also, doesn't sound Honda-ish. Just more like an I-4. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boostjunkie Posted November 14, 2007 Author Share Posted November 14, 2007 The exhaust note will be more Evo than Honduh. Smoother, with much less resonance than the stock manifolds or non-EQL headers. EQL headers actually help out significantly with cabin resonances when cruising so your car will be subjectively notably quieter. Pricing wise I'm targeting $450-500, but that will depend on what my final price is from my manufacturer. I will not be offering coating. Frankly while coating do offer theoretical advantages, I just have not seen that play out in the real world. Given the cost and the loss of your product warranty, I just cannot justify the cost. Stay tuned for dyno results, but I'm expecting gains of at least 20wtq and 10whp on a stock turbo car and much more on cars with upgraded turbos.

Joon525 Posted November 17, 2007 Share Posted November 17, 2007 Wow it looks exactly like my Synic header I got last year. http://www.legacygt.com/forums/showthread.php?t=48451 This design quiets down the car nicely in person. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S0CalGT Posted November 17, 2007 Share Posted November 17, 2007 For those still wondering about the sound, here's a clip of my car. I don't know how much difference in sound there is between a twinscroll to a single scroll turbo, but it should give you an idea of what to expect.

Boostjunkie Posted January 4, 2008 Author Share Posted January 4, 2008 Sorry about the delays guys. I've had a couple other projects occupying my time, so the headers have on the back burner for the last month. I should be getting a production run started soon.
