He had it paired with the HKS single exit and it sounded amazing
I was very torn between the 350 and the 400 when I was looking at headers. Ultimately ended up spending the little extra and going with the 350. Need to take the time to powder-coat my wheels so I can get the car out and about again.

If you don't mind me asking was there a preference as to why you chose the 350 over the 400? This is the question I am trying to mull over right now. Not much vids on the 400 atm

My main reasoning was I was not 100% sure I won't eventually supercharge it. From everything I read about the 350 is it was one of if not the best choice of headers if you ever plan to supercharge in the future. The 400 was also just coming out when I got the 350 so not a lot of real-world feedback on it and I could afford the 350 so just went that route. Sorry I don't have any concrete reasoning's such as oh it makes so much more power then the 400 under these conditions.

Thanks for the feedback. I like both headers and can't find any real reasons to choice one over the other, other than one has been tried and tested and the other is relatively more new. Both sound great and perform great.

Yep I was in your exact same position 4 months or so ago when I was looking at buying mine. Basically the advice people gave me is if you can afford the 350 go with the 350. If you cant go with the 400. The 350 is a tight squeeze even on left hand drive cars. You will have to lift up the motor for install of the over pipe . I do not know if this is the case with the 400 or not. Either way motor and such is pretty easy to manipulate when you loosen up the nuts on the 2 engine mounts. Just make sure to loosen them don't take them all the way off or you can accidentally lift the studs out of the hole and its a royal pain to get them to drop back in.

I contemplated it but after seeing how easy it was to lift the motor I said meh next time I'm already over my self imposed spending limit for the car this year lol.
