Arrow New HotPipes Headers In Development

Hello guys! i am currently working with someone on bringing in a high quality and very affordable UEL header to the market.

Here are some pictures and dyno charts of the headers in development

Let me know what you think

Price of these will likely be under $499




Picture above is ONLY a prototype. Final product will look like the picture below. Note: the second product is not for a FA20 motor (different subaru application) It just gives you an idea and how the product will look like after production


















And here are the some FAQs:

Q: How much power does it make?
A: Just by bolting on, it's any easy 8-11whp

Q: What is it made of?
A: 304 Stainless steel.

Q: Is it unequal or equal length?
A: Unequal length. The equal length versions we made, did not produce as much power as the unequal.

Q: Does it get rid of the torque dip?
A: It drastically minimizes and it's practically flat for all intents and purposes

Q: Is this a bolt on?
A: Yes it is, 100%

Q: Do I need an overpipe.midpipe?
A: Our headers will bolt on to the stock overpipe, but our bigger over/mid pipe is highly recommended to achieve more power and flow

Q: Do I need to get it tuned?
A: Highly recommended. Tuned headers showed gains of up to 33whp

Q: What kind of power are we expecting when tuned?
A: Out test car is currently the record holder for highest output NA at 192whp. And this is achieved with the least amount of mods: K&N drop in, HotPipes headers, over/mid pipe and reflash. Stock exhaust, stock muffler, stock everything.

Q: How is it made? Manufacturing Process?
A: Each header is hand made

Q: How much does it cost?
A: Intro price will like be $499

What type of SS and where is it supplied from? That's my question since the price is almost too good to be true.

Afraid the welds will not tolerate heat level and possibly cause a crack...
I'd be interested in seeing some gineau pigs.
