Subaru Boxer Burble Anyone?.. :)
Stumbled upon this....seems the closest thing to a Boxer Rumble.
[ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xU-ebYV-scg"]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xU-ebYV-scg[/ame] Still not sure if they have change the headers to UEL. its got the burble when revved low...but sounds normal when being floored. |
stock headers are UEL, btw.
|
The boxer rumble happens at all levels of throttle. All EL headers still have a bit of rumble at idle due to the boxer being a boxer, but the noise everyone wants is during acceleration and normal driving, which will only come from UEL. :(
|
based on this pic , I can safely say its not an unequal length.
http://www.tune86.com/sites/default/...ow_2011_72.jpg its actually a 4-2-1 manifold. this is THE reason why the car doesnt have the traditional Boxer rumble. |
We had the header pulled off and mapped. it's UEL. 30%
|
not trying to be a jerk or anything. I thought they were EL as well until Nameless told me there was a 30% difference in length after they pulled them off and measured them.
|
ah okay....but it isnt the traditional UEL you'll find on old STi's/Subarus. just comparing it to my '04 STi.
is the length difference alot on the BRZ UEL?.. EDIT: just saw the 30%.....to get more rumble I assume the difference should be much higher. |
From what I heard, the bends are pretty different on the STI/WRX headers compared to the BRZ. Maybe that has an impact on the sound- something about the BRZ being more 180 degree type bends, whereas the Impreza has 90 degree bends.
I believe Jason told me the runner lengths have a 30% difference in length. Their header setup is about .08% difference in length, just about equal. So maybe it's header design that contributes to the rumble, or maybe just the motor itself. Or both. |
I love the way it is so quiet
