I appreciate all the suggestions. From what I've read so far, the data on the '13-'16 cars seems more sorted than for the '17+ cars. Apologies for the confusion and lack of specificity on my part. My current wish list/concerns are as follows: re-flash to stock myself if needed, pass Texas inspections, 93 is local, but would like to run 91 if 93 is not available, no clearance issues with header, heat soak (I'm in Houston), and don't want more sound than I have with the 5" muffled Nameless AB. I'd like to see at least 10 HP/torque peak gains, with more in the mid range. It seems a catless header is needed for this, even with the improved OEM header. I'd prefer not to have to wrap the header, as I've heard that's difficult to do without stressing the header due to unequal heat/cooling. The ACE350 seems to be on top for performance, but is very expensive. The Tomei UEL seems to be close, with more of a subie rumble (I like the idea of having a different note), but which tune is best bang for buck currently for the Tomei? Would the gains being significant over a good canned tune with the setup I have? I don't really want to spent time/money at the dyno for a custom tune.
