Installed my PPE Engineering header - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

Evil86 · 02-19-2013, 06:36 PM

I already have a PPE front pipe w/ high flow cat, mid pipe, and axle back single exit exhaust. I posted about that in another thread, but now my polished, ceramic coated equal length header and over pipe are installed.

The original over pipe is 3.2 pounds, and the 2.5" PPE pipe is 2.1 lbs.
The stockheader w/ heat shield is 21 lbs. and the PPE one is 15.6 lbs.

With the 19.5 lbs. saving from the other exhaust items, I dropped 26 lbs. off the car.

I will try to load a video, but I am having a bitch of a time doing it. I can't get the one I made for the first exhaust change up yet.

The car is fairly loud. Paul said he was thinking about designing one for noise restrictions. Also, mine has a flex joint, but he is thinking about using flex tube.

Vids? I really want a header but have already removed secondary cat and wondering what this will sound like. You have a single exit should be kind of close to what it would sound like.

The PPE website has it at $850.00.

Seems pretty expensive for mild steel even considering it comes with the overpipe. Hopefully it makes power!

Just saw the price with the OP. PPE are very well known for their headers in the Z community. I just hope the research was there too.
