Case study comparing the Ace header against a popular UEL header with FI
First dyno:
2017 MT (205hp base motor, new red manifold, etc.) UEL header w/ ceramic JRSC C38 w/ High Boost Pulley Graphs: baseline (stock) ACN91 E55 (MBT, aka no more power to be made with more ethanol) https://i.imgur.com/IrcmEiJ.png Second dyno: 2013 MT Ace A350 header w/ CSG double ceramic JRSC C30 w/ standard pulley and High Boost Pulley Graphs: baseline (stock) E85 SBP E85 HBP https://i.imgur.com/P01ozN0.png Overlaid (combined) graphs w/ identifiers for comparison. https://i.imgur.com/ReCmFHm.png Conclusions: Smaller supercharger (C30) with less boost (~2psi less), makes more power (+35whp, +25wtq), due to the Ace header. The C30 + standard pulley + Ace header makes more power and more area under the curve than the C38 + high boost pulley + UEL header! Both cars dyno tuned by Zach Tucker of CSG. Imagine a C38 + HBP + Ace header... |
No offense, but do we really need another thread reminding us the ACE header makes the most power? Otherwise, that output is very impressive! :cheers:

Did you ever compare the different ace headers with boost? Is the 350 the best for boosted? I seen on their website that says the crossfire is for forced induction.
I also can't figure out that different size wheels and gear ratios would affect whp and call for a different header. Sent from my SM-G965U1 using Tapatalk |

I've read that Dyno Dynamics is heart-breaker compared to a Dynojet, so I'd be quite interested to see what my tS with a JRSC C30/PTuning Header/JDL UQFP/E85 setup would do on a Dynojet. For reference, on PTuning's Dyno Dynamics I put down 307whp/230ft-lbs on a 90+degree day. |

I haven't seen an apple to apples comparison FI yet. |

While the dynos themselves can't be directly compared, when you always provide a baseline, you can very much overlay the baseline to get a semi-accurate comparison, as well as compare the % gain, which is what truly matters. For reference, the TRL Dynojet reads exactly how a Dynojet should read, and is accurate for NASA Dynojet numbers. You can take whp numbers, divide by 0.88, and get accurate crank numbers. A stock FA20 reads ~175whp on this dyno The CSG Dynapack reads lower, and you can take CSG whp numbers, divide by 0.75, and get accurate crank numbers. A stock FA20 reads ~150whp on this dyno. |
Rod breaking power is available without the Ace, but thanks for the data.

I would like to see the ACE vs UEL catless vs OEM Decat (hammer and screwdriver).
Same car, same tuner (hopefully a good one), same dyno, same conditions, same fuel. All on an NA engine where the pipe length, diameter, velocity, collector design and pulses really mean more in design than a boosted application where blow down is seen. All by a independent place that doesn't sell aftermarket parts. Disclaimer: I'm no expert, I just like fluid and thermal dynamics and their part in making power. I would also like to see some traps and mph for each test. From my experience there is generally a difference in claims when the tyres are on the blacktop. Marketing is a magical thing. |
So many peeps salty bout the Ace being heads above the rest ..... thanks again for the validation of me buying the right header/ tune for my Fi brz :)
