I think the best bet may be to hold off on torquing down the header to block bolts until the over pipe to header flange is bolted up. The over / front pipe also needs to be completely unbolted and free from everything else when you tighten up the header to over pipe flange.. trust me, i have had the flange leak on the top side every time I have worked on my current header or the

Except in the exhaust case you've got negative pressure waves from the exhaust passing down the tubes and passing the other tubes at the merges, helping exhaust scavenging. |

It certainly doesn't need to be lifted much (or at all if you are willing to kinda hammer it in,) but it is worth lifting just a bit to make it much easier. I unbolting the middle hanger on the front pipe to allow you to push the exhaust toward the rear also helps. Removing the fan clip and relocating it also makes life easier. The clip isn't easy to pull out and feels like you need to get in behind it to release it, but even pressure and persistence gets it loose.
How I shoulda woulda coulda So from to top disconnect your o2 sensors and unclip their little harness so they can exit with the header. Unbolt the middle front pipe hanger and unbolt the flange by the cats. Shift the exhaust rearward. Now you unbolt the header from the heads and out it comes.. Loosen passenger engine mount and lift it without pulling it all the way off the bolt. From the top again pry the fan clip loose and decide on routing. Top requires more clip removal. Remove the resonator on the intake elbow and insert/clamp their plug. Make sure everything you need to secure from the top is done. Transfer your o2 sensors to the new header. Wipe the header down so you don't cook any finger prints onto it. Gloves are a good idea as usual. Now you can wiggle the header in place and snug it down on your hopefully new gaskets. I suggest fulling torquing them, but whatever. Shift the front pipe forward into position and make sure you will be able to at least get those bolts in the hanger started. Now it's op/header gasket/bolt time. Get it all started and see how much adjustment room you have. I used a new grimmspeed gasket on the op side and the nameless gasket on the header side. So two gaskets. No issues so far with leaks or fitment to the stock op. Get everything snug/torqued plugged in etc. Before you replace the skid plate I would fire the car up and let it run up to temp and see if you hear or feel any leaks. Finally turn it off and let it cool down and make sure everything is still snug before you button up the skid plate. Just my advise.

Alright. First off I want to say I am very pleased with the results. Peak hp was not quite what I wanted, but mid range gains more than made up for it. Also I've been told that Dyno Dynamics reads lower than a Dynojet would.
Here is a stock BRZ (not mine, but done at same location) versus my car tuned. As you could see, there is a 35hp increase at about 4600rpm's and a 39lbft tq increase at 4500rpm's. Car feels soooooo much better. Throttle response has increased quite a bit and the it just feels MUCH quicker overall. Here is my car before and after the tune. Tune made a significant difference as you could see. All credit goes to Adam @Revolutions Performance. And here's all three together. Big thanks to Nameless @Ryan@Nameless @Jason@Nameless for a great quality product that made the car way more fun to drive. Also want to say thank you to @Revolutions Performance for the tune. Provided great results and exceptional customer service, which is almost more important to me than the tuning. Really appreciate the hard work and the awesome experience. Would recommend them to anybody. Can't wait to really test it out this Sunday at our first practice event of the year. edit: forgot to list mods. Nameless EL Header, Nameless 3" downpipe, stock midpipe, Greddy SP Elite axleback, and HKS drop in filter. Last edited by slava; 03-21-2014 at 04:50 PM. |
