Revworks UEL. Dead flat flanges, excellent welds, clean collector. Never held an OFH in my hand but people rave about them as well.

Can I recommend a PLM overpipe as well?

Cost depends on where you buy, as with most car parts

+1 on OFH as well... great company, very active on our boards. I'm running the OFT as well with it's OTS maps, since they're using OFH in developing the tunes, might as well, right?

PPE Headers! Because of its completely new design. Non catted. 4-1 equal length race header capable of destroying the Subaru sound. Includes the 2.5 inch over pipe. Comes ceramic coated. For both automatic and manual cars. A little more expensive but worth the extra money.



I think i'll start a groupbuy.

I'm no expert, but really the biggest different you will find is whether or not the header is catted, and a catted/uncatted front pipe, and your choice of catback
