Ive got the OFT Uel header and overpipe with Oft Tune, Great sound. The header is a piece of art. very well made! Really woke up the power!

I've got both ends done, CAI and header, OP and FP with tune. The sound tube plumbing is intact but I didn't open the pipe at the CAI end. The noise in the car is much better, not load but you can hear the stuff going on.

The engine revs more freely and isn't "ricer" loud.

Seen Openflash headers crack welds and they only have a 1 year warranty...

Thanks for the input on this guys.
Still not exactly sure what i will go with. I am surprised to hear that a catless UEL header is not all that much louder.
Its a shame we have to buy a $500 tuner to run a catless header.
While more power is always nice, thats not why I am wanting one. Just a shame its doubling my price just to get sound. haha
Oh well, I am sure the tuner will be nice also and be used more over time if I do any other mods to the car.

The best/more power is on the tune, not on the header. But if you combine both will give better results

I'm running a catted FT86SF UEL, stock op, Invidia catless w/ resonator fp, and N1 catback. Sound was good for rumble but still decent for daily driving. I also ran the OFT, which gave it a bit more "oomf".
