EQUAL Length Headers designed for 1st Gen NOT IDEAL for 2nd Gen
 
:burnrubber:

New EQUAL Length Headers are being developed for the 2022 model

Engine Harmonics are different between 1st and 2nd Generation

EQUAL Length Headers designed for 1st Gen are NOT IDEAL for 2nd Gen

They WORSEN the Torque Dip and will most likely hurt tuning potential

Unequal Length Headers ARE compatible between 1st and 2nd Gen

Verified Independently and by some Manufacturers

Well yah, but to be fair the Tomei EL headers weren't really optimized for the FA20 compared to others available.

without a tune available, why would you want to put headers on anyways?

They can still increase power and address the torque dip. To have optimal gains, a tune is always recommended.
