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.
I wanted to install the Toda Racing header, but it is catless and not legal here. However, I noticed that the branch diameters are almost the same:

Toda: 45mm, 50mm
Stock '17 MT: 45 mm, 48.6mm



Additionally, the shape is similar.

So, I assumed that the new stock header is better for a stock engine. I'll let you know when it is installed. Currently it is on the way ..
