Changes are that the exhaust pipe branches have been shortened to equal lengths (16MY and previous years had almost equal lengths) and exhaust pipe layout has been strengthened out to reduce pressure loss. Additionally, the pipe diameter has been increased between 5-8%:
Not too many options here for an aftermarket header. I want to be "legal" safe.
One question:
Is it safe to run OFT Stage 1 tune with the changed OEM header? I understand that it might not be optimal for performance, but do you think the AFRs will be OK? |
Now you even got me interested in this option.
I wanted the Fujitsubo Header....I still do...if i find it used without a cat burnt out since they seem to have cat failures a lot.
I can't risk buying a header for $2500 with no warranty and having the cat fail.
Also, for legal reasons...i feel better knowing I have a stock header instead of an aftermarket header since I'm already running a catless front pipe.
So, if this 2017 header has some gains over the 2013-2016 one I'd probably choose this as an option and get a custom tune for it.

Hmmm, not sure why you are feeling this. For me personally, the Stage 1 tune is night and day difference compared to the stock tune. When I went back to the stock tune to have a dealer visit, the car drove so bad haha.
Have you maybe considered getting a custom tune from OFT?
I'm actually debating on getting a custom tune from them....wondering if there would be any benefits for us.
