Invidia just released their new header
 
http://www.ft86speedfactory.com/invi...2013-ft86.html

I already have the Invida N1 cat back, FP and OP (all catless, non-res). Would you guys take this over Tomei?

I wonder what is that CEL Fix module in set. Most probably some spacer, not O2 sim though ..
Still, it might perform good imho. Secondary runners are rather long and have shallow merge angle .. it may show good torque in lower rpms.
EDIT
Oh, missed "optional accessories". "Vibrant O2 Spacer For CEL".

FT86SF lists that for ALL catless headers.
I'm wondering if the CEL fix module is the same thing though?

I probably wouldn't take either when paired with that setup because I like being able to hear myself think.

I'm running a similar setup (PLM header, Motive Concept OP, Invidia Catless resonated FP, Invidia N1 CB) and it's really not that bad. A little bit of drone at certain speeds under load (going 80mph and up a hill for instance), but still quieter than the stock exhaust with a muffler delete.

They also released that full titanium single exit exhaust. Super pricey though!

Not a bad looking header. It looks to be stepped differently from the OEM and HKS designs based on the pictures.

Excited to see how it pans out, but at that price point I doubt it's a good value over the P&L and JDL's of the header world. EDIT: FT86 SF's price is effectively $790, the JDL EL is $690. I really don't think Invidia has a cost competitive product here. And I say that as someone who has installed, used, autox'd with Invidia components heavily in the past, largely because the fit and finish is usually very competitive and well priced.

Interesting to see them jump into the header game so late with something in line price wise with JDL, Time, etc.

I already have headers but still interested in dynos

jumping into the header game late isn't much of an issue. There are a lot of brand will be jumping in soon or some time within a yr. Because 2nd hand FRS/BRZ will be decently cheap and I think, we'll see more buyer for this car.

$700~$800 header is pretty high up... but tbh let's face it, we have seen higher price tag on header before. As long as dyno to prove their value, I think ppl will buy it.

I don't think they will have a hard time selling these with their name and reputation. Sales of this car in general are doing well. A lot of people that wanted to see their warranty through are now jumping into the modification game.

That's true. Basically what I meant was you'd think they would know they'd have to prove its worth it and throw dyno #s out there right away. That's a lot of money for unproven parts
