Offical Gruppe-S UEL Header Install & Review Thread
Hey guys,
So @Gruppe-s has been working on getting us some UEL headers for a while now, and they finally came in! (June/July 2015). https://c1.staticflickr.com/1/331/19...921a2e0a_c.jpg https://c2.staticflickr.com/4/3705/1...a3e62401_c.jpg Packaging was great, and all gaskets/nuts and bolts were included. No need to reuse the stock ones(which should be replaced anyway when you swap headers). I opted for the Header AND overpipe, and they look KICKASS. The welds are clean(cause you know, everyone on this forum is an expert welder-and love to trash crappy welds) but these things are CLEAN. The insides of the header/overpipe are SMOOTH. Plus, flanges on the header were perfectly flat, so you'll be exhaust leak-free https://c1.staticflickr.com/1/361/19...4ab0406b_c.jpg And the collector, HOLY COW. IT. IS. PERFECT. Let the pictures speak for themselves. https://c2.staticflickr.com/4/3677/1...49efb693_c.jpg https://c1.staticflickr.com/1/403/19...157c3c5d_c.jpg Install-Sweet. There are a ton of of how-to's for removing the stock stuff, and this install was no different. Everything lined up perfectly and there were no hiccups. There is adjustment on the header, so if for some reason stuff didn't line up perfectly, you could tweak it a bit. Mine went on without a hitch. Sounds-Perfect. I've been dying for the boxer rumble since I got the car over 2 years ago, but I've been holding off because A) I'm stupid B) I wasn't happy with the quality of "cheap" headers, but didn't want to spend a ton of money This header ROCKS. I've only had in on a few hours now, but my buddy and I went out and did some "testing" and sound clips with the camera. The car sounds like a BEAST. Currently, my exhaust setup is: Gruppe-S UEL Header Gruppe-S Overpipe Stock Frontpipe(I guess I might was well swap-its the final piece haha) Ark Grip catback I bought the ARK because I wanted to buy a header down the road, and I didn't want to be too loud. Right now, its perfect. I'll of course be reporting back as I spend more time with the car and put more miles on it! https://c1.staticflickr.com/1/433/19...08250a64_c.jpg https://c1.staticflickr.com/1/331/19...34f50307_c.jpg |
