JDL 4-2-1 EL header
My point is that people complaining about ACE being expensive have every reason to do so. There is no reason for ACE to discontinue the type B headers other than making their customers spend more money. The Type B headers were still expensive, but for the extra performance worth it for most people. I don't see any reason to pay $600 more for the same header without slip joints and a smaller convergence angle (15 vs 20 degrees). JDL's UEL header which is less than half the price of the ACE type A has a 15 degree collector anyway so it can't be that hard to make. My point is that ACE headers work, but they are not worth $1000 more than a JDL UEL(already at the high end of the market). At ~$1100 they'd be a compelling option. At $1700 not so much. |

lol
I don't like UEL sound either but that might rile some feathers FYI this thread is about a new JDL EL header, not UEL. Hopefully will be priced in-line with their current offerings. I think that was more to his point... |

It's not like the 86 is bursting at the seams with easy NA gains. The CS400 with a Delicious tune is $1700 (ecutek hardware extra). Still a good value imo on $/hp for those staying NA.

If you go in reverse order based on market prices, $350 for a custom tune, $50 for hardware, $250 for an overpipe, all the sudden, the header itself only cost you 1235. Not a huge premium for proven numbers. Based on the numbers I've seen so far, the JDL EL will slot in nicely, but I do expect it to be more expensive than the UEL. |
