Will this be more than the Agency Power Header?

What will make this header better than the others. Not implied in a rude way. Just wondering.

I can't comment on the specifics on any other header as i've only seen our's and the OEM one that came off the car. I can only tell you the key points that i believe make ours a very high quality product.

- 100% made in the USA
- CNC machined flanges
- Low angle merge collector with proper choke size and megaphone
- Stepped runners
- Weld quality
- Porting quality
- Customer service, our sales staff is directly involved with r&d to have a full understanding of the product

With all that said we'll have finished pictures and pricing available VERY shortly here. This header wont' be for everyone but i think those that understand what goes into these will find the price very satisfying.

Well for one thing the AP headers don't make any power at all.


These also look awesome and well designed where as the AP one looks like a chopped wrx header IMO

Can you tell the difference?

Either way this is JDLAutoDesigns thread and I can't wait to hear these bad boys in action. Looks great!

X2, when an exhaust manufacturer takes the time to port the collector after welding to make sure everything is smooth, that's attention to details. thumbs up. I also want to see the UEL headers.

very well done
