Pulling the trigger on the ACE 350
Well after numerous threads and wanting more power with my supercharger setup, the next logical step was replacing the header. Getting tired of the UEL sound so I wanted to try EL. And since I am going this route the choice was clear @CSG Mike I hope all this hype is right. Pairing it with an HKS dual resonated front pipe and will stick with my mxp sp catback. Looking for more power under the curve and for the car to sing up top a bit more.

I would have gone with that header if I had the option. Good riddance of that UEL. You will probably get a nice power bump with the new tune without increasing the boost. I have been using HKS dual-resonated front pipe too; very happy with quality, sound, and actually a noticeable power increase. My exhaust is HKS HiPower Spec-L.

It’s awesome. Watch out for leaks and bolts backing out. It’s been a constant issue for me.
