Oburn · 05-15-2013, 08:13 PM

I'm still trying to figure out what header to go with for my BRZ which is stock ATM. Right now the 2 I'm really interested in are Revworks and JDL, UEL.

I know with Revworks right now if your car isn't tuned you get the CEL issue. I know there Is a solution with a O2 sensor. I'm not an expert on car parts so I'm not sure how tricky it is or how much trouble if any to use the O2 sensor to stop the issue. Obviously I'd be bringing it to a shop to get done, so would they know what do with this?

Does the JDL header also cause this or do all headers cause this without a tune?

Any other suggestions on headers are very welcome, I'm here to learn.

Also I'm not building a car to race, just same mind as everyone, get more power lol.
