Correct, but I asked 3 or 4 times and made sure that they said $750. And it really seemed like that price was pretty solid.

How much are Tomei headers for other make/model cars? I think that would be the best guesstimate.

Btw...what's that pipe over the UEL? ...is that a muffler delete pipe?? ...or, is it even a crazier header-straight pipe that attaches to the header and dumps the exhaust gasses to the side of the car??? ...haha..kinda looks like it by the long length and also big angle. It's tomei, so I wouldn't be surprised if it really was a header-straight pipe. They are afterall pretty hardcore.

Lastly, what is the "joint pipe"? It looks like part of the OP, but it is much longer.
I got the PPE EL header and over pipe ceramic coated inside and out shipped for $850...

About the same. Just Google it.

Wow..subaru tomei header for $711?! lol

I guess we'd maybe already have estimates to what they are capable of, since they've been out for a minute for the wrx's and such.

The decision will be what your want to sound like - a boxer or a honda/evo. ...I think I'd choose boxer..because porsche! x.X

The EL header looks exactly like the Agency Power header but with nicer looking welds.

They look similar In that they're 4-2-1 but the runner paths are not the same...

I'm not sure I understand your analogy. UEL is inefficient, EL is tuned. Porsches are boxers with EL and they sound nothing like the garbage burble of a WRX.

definitely subbed for more info. im guessing it will also be one of the lighter, if not lightest Headers to date?

It is very light, but didn't have anything to compare it to at the time.

I want to know the weight of these! Since their exhaust are feather light!

Fett4Real 05-11-2014 02:56 AM
It's not titanium if that's what you mean I picked up the uel and it was normal in weight compared to a header of equal size.

Now that you mention it they are slightly different.

Ah, didn't know the porsche had EL.

I know nothing about porsche and what parts it uses. All I know it's a boxer and 6cy and sounds unique when I hear them on the streets, lol. How should I know?..since I'm not a rich person and don't research cars I will never own. I was just assuming haha. :bonk:
