JDL V2 EL Header...Revisited and Revised

We developed our first EL header over a year ago now...gains were pretty good on a non tuned car. Then we got VERY busy with the UEL's and the EL stuff kinda sat around not being pushed. We had a couple out there with the old flex joints and they had issues with clearing the skid pan. Now that we got a couple more welders in here it allowed me to go back and redesign the EL headers. New header clears factory skid pan, has increased runner length and better collector design. I'm excited to get these out there and see some dyno's

I'll have some welded shots up tomo to see weld quality, etc.

If this is anything like the UEL, people are in for a treat. JDL FTW!

I love my serial #001 original EL. The quality, sound, power increase on stock tune is well worth it.

Any chance of a catted version?

Seems the best way to make decent power with EL is with the runners going up in front of the engine?

Prolly nothing catted...I think the idea of a Cat right after a merge collector kinda defeats the purpose of having a proper collector.

Going up really has nothing to do with power other than I had to go somewhere to get the lengths i needed and going down wasn't an option (skid plate) and neither was going forward (OEM fan shroud). I'm sure it will look good seeing more of it in the engine bay but it doesn't go up as high as some i've seen.

More EL competition.... I like it.

Plenty of people still waiting for the best. And more buyers all the time.

Looks like HKS is mid and high end. Nameless is low and mid. Curious where this headers adds the power
