Top Speed Pro-1 Catted UEL Headers.

[BlueDubbinTDI]

Just so everyone here knows Top Speed just refunded me $60 for the exhaust modifications I had to pay for and they didnt even ask for proof or pictures or anything. Thats just amazing customer service. Buy this shit guys, atleast theyre willing to backup thier work!

I'm pretty sure these cat-back/headers/other exhaust parts are mass produced/rebranded products (probably from taiwan)

http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/KLS-POWER...-/360751396226 - same exhaust set up, different company

http://www.empireperformance.com.au/...ke-piping.html -same header, different company (claims 10-15hp over stock, with cat? Sceptical..)

http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Manzo-Sta...item58aac3a971 -same header, different company again

Theres probably others. The cat-back and header look exactly the same, cant be a coincide.

Still, interesting to see the dyno on this cheap system.

How loud is this compared to hks, ft86 headers? Drone? Daily drivable?

Just installed these from Perth, WEST AUSTRALIA supplier EMPIRE PERFORMANCE.
They have been updated with the flex joints removed as that seemed to have been responsible for rattles in more than 1 car.
My little beauty is running stock tune and MILLTEK header back with overpipe exhaust , no cat. Therefore these are and FT86CLUBs were the only UEL headers with a Cat. (Running without a Cat isnt an option, its just wrong).
The little beauty sounds great, definetly less UEL than the other options out there but still has a syrupy smooth howl that tighttens up higher up the rev range.
Definetly smoother in both torque delivery and engine smoothness, no CEL yet.
No rasp and no drone. I think the MILLTEK with its long resonator and nice smooth tone helps it sound so good.

none so far but tomorrow morning will be only the second run with these headers.
They are definetly not as well finished as the others but they are also around half the price

They are under the car: I could care less what they look like as long as they make power and don't fall apart.
Somebody needs to get these on a dyno.

Its going great. The tone is a tight smooth howl that doesnt drone nor rasp. I believe the full Milltek exhaust plays a big part in how it sounds. Its barely UEL in sound though,,,
The torque dip is less but not gone.
Engine revs quicker and smoother
The finish is average, certainly not up there with the best but the price is right for around $550 Aus.
im confident in the after sales support from Paul and the others at EMPIRE.
Aiming to get a recording put up soon
