Some help with headers ? - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

So I just installed my greddy supreme sp and it sounds real good. I’m now looking for some UEL headers to match up to it, but I’m not sure what brand to go with to compliment my exhaust thus far. Any ideas would be great thanks !

Tomei is the usual top choice, depends on your budget, but JDL and Borla are my top choices.

Budget?

Clayt95 · 07-06-2018, 09:05 PM

Under 1k would be ideal to keep my wife off my back haha

Hahaha understood! I believe the Tomei UEL’s range in the $600 to $800 range? So you should be good one those. The Borla’s run about $500 to $600 range, I know listening to some on YouTube isn’t ideal since you can’t hear them in person, but all the brands i mentioned will serve you well!

You can also look into Gruppe-S their header is around $475 and great quality I believe they are made in the same factory as Tomei. The only downside is I believe it only comes catless. JDL is also a great choice they come with lifetime warranty I believe which is great!

JDL UEL header sounded great with it when I had the GReddy exhaust

So far my used ofh has worked very well. 380 bucks

I don't believe Ace produces an UEL header.

No, but by the time you're spending that much, you're probably looking for actual performance, not sound.

True, though there are some pretty darned good UELs out there. I might be wrong but seems like OP was looking for the UEL sound.

JDL has both, and they are the best performance for under 1k with quality sound.

Ace is only EL but all around best header, even bang for buck.

Seems pointless to buy a header back for purely only sound. Might as well get some performance gains out of it.
