Borla uel headers
Hey guys quick question, will the borla uel headers be able to be used with a turbo set up? I'm planning on turbo when my warranty is up and it won't be for maybe 3-4 years but I wanna have that Subaru rumble,

Odds are a turbo kit will have it's own header, unlikely to work with a NA exhaust, do your research. |

A turbo is spun by exhaust gases. The turbo needs to mount onto a header specifically made for turbos. So to answer your question, you cannot use a borla header for a (traditional) turbo setup.

3-4 years? Good luck haha, I can't plan for the next 3-4 days lmfao.
Either way though, the header will retain some value, so I wouldnt not get it just because of future plans. I change my mind so much and often about what I want to do to this car its ridiculous. |
