Ah well, you can tune a Toyota, but you still can't tuna fish.

Sorry guys, I don't have the info yet. I was already on E85 when I installed it. I will need to do that since I will need a revised pumpgas tune for the header as well.

Nice stuff man!! The Borla UEL headers have big a big hit with us!

We've sold so many of them in our ongoing Group Buy and have heard nothing but awesome reviews from our customers. Even sent some to Australia and South Africa and they absolutely love it!! Amazing sound and performance on the 86's

Any chance they'll start using GTAW ('TIG') to weld those headers in the future? I've been put off by the appearance of the welds and numerous quality control returns buyers have been reporting from various shops. I love the sound of Borla and would consider a UEL header considering the gains people have been pulling off (dips in those graphs are basically gone after tuning!?), but I'm picky about weld quality (QC-7 GMAW/GTAW/SMAW certs from Hobart).

Lies, every time I've heard about borlas it's about the complete piece of quality shit they are... And I own one... Collector is garbage and its devolving surface rust after 2k and rust on the welds. BORLA UELS are complete crap.


And yes I do plan on buying a replacement JDL or revworks UEL, and yes the borla is that bad.

Mind u it's not that I'm saying you sell bad products or anything like that, but borlas sell because their cheap. And I feel as though this time borla F'd the donkey on QC. It's not the suppliers/venders I'm angry with its BORLAs problem.

I had no leaks from the get go, but it's still rusting, and the collector is 4 tubes straight welded together, no semblance of a merge at all... AKA a bag of ass. As for the rust, I'd keep checking, I'm just gonna end up buying a JDL UEL, because revworks didn't put an expansion joint on theirs for FI.
