Headers for under $300, NEW??

[sirsol66]

In for fitment information. I'm interested in the OFH, but the wait time is also a deal breaker.

Hey guys, I just got the Tsudo's header installed today. The fitment was perfect. The installer had a little difficulty taking out the oem overpipe, but the header was a piece of cake. You can definitely hear and feel the boxer's rumble after the installation. Omg, the sound that my car make is insane. I thought adding the header to my setup [Motiv's overpipe, Megen's frontpipe and their duel canisters catback exhaust]was gonna be extremely loud. But it actually tone down the drone and sound from the exhaust. It sounds a lot meaner now. There is a weird smell coming from the exhaust though. I don't know if that's normal after installing a new catless header. If anyone could chime in on this matter I would gladly appreciated it.

Almost forgot I took this pic. They had a scale at the installation shop. So I asked if they can weigh the header before they install it. Clocked in 11.15 lbs. I believe the Borla is about 1 lb lighter.

That smell is from the lack of cats. No biggie. The far I have now is
Others lily the only car I have ever owned with cats and I could never tell the difference...

Thanks for being the ballsy one to try these out and for the pics / review.

Not going to lie these welds look just as good as some of the 1K priced headers. While I'm still on the fence for my choice of headers this has now become another consideration..

Anyone have a decent link on these? I would love to see a torque curve and hear it with the stock exhaust too.

Anyone know if these headers require spacers for CEL?

the actual video shown on the page is the header with their uel catback system.. its not with the stock exhaust so i dont know how it would sound with stock exhaust but if you plan on changing the exhaust you will probably hear that rumble with an aftermarker catback/axleback + UEL header ;]

Did you use a coupon code or something? It's listed now at $400

I'd really like to hear this with stock exhaust and/or Greddy sp elite or top speed axlebacks. Can anyone post a clip of some revs and possibly some under-load clips, regardless on your exhaust setup? I want to hear more before buying.

Installed recently, no actual dyno #'s.. but butt dyno loves it! Running OFT combo w/ full invida setup. Nope, no coupon. It was listed at $380 when I took the leap.

Can you please post (or text me) a short video of the start up and a few revs? I really want to hear it, and buy it lol.

bought one as they were cheap but it started to have a crack on the welds. I started noticing my afr reading was not where it suppose to be at and could smell exhaust. Ended up switching over to OFH and couldn't be happier.

Personally I already have Borla UEL headers, but I was shocked to see such cheap prices. Thought this would be perfect for someone that is really going for an extremely low budget exhaust setup. I use their Catted Downpipe and I've had it on for 8 months, no rasp, no cracks/rust, welds are good. Anyone running this? Any reviews? Someone with a little spare money test this thing out haha post a vid. More interested in the sound it would produce over any performance gains.

[invaliduser]

You have any pics of the cracked weld? I don't doubt you, but I'm in the market for one and this is the first claimed issue I've read about.
