I never thought the BRZ would ever sound properly good but.. WOW. The EL sounds like one mean race car. The UEL sound great as well but I feel the EL is just meaner

Takes time to R&D you know. Would you ratrher have them here wasting time on forums while they could be using that time to develop a better header?

I like how both sound! But the UEL does make the engine sound like it has bigger displacement.

I have to agree. May be it's just crappy mic but still. And power gains are very poor for full exhaust which will probably have an MSRP of 2K. Catback itself is 1K MSRP.
