Reviews will always be mixed. Every unhappy customer is going to make sure to give a bad review, and you can't please everybody, so there is bound to be some bad reviews. The OpenFlash Header is probably a good option for you. It's not too expensive($645), and the guys that run the company are on this board, and are very helpful.

Header wise, you may run into issues if you go with the cheaper ones. You also might not. That's a chance you have to take.

Like everyone else said, work the exhaust from front to back. I didn't have that luxury waiting for my header to be completed for months and with the way parts were at the given time. Now you can easily get a header first and work on the rest of the exhaust to the catback.

Really ?! I love it !
And I wasn't necessarily looking at "cheap" headers. Just not 1300 for a header. And I'm planning on getting the header and front pipe/ over pipe all together so I can install at one time.

And I was looking at that combo. But I have not 1 clue on how to work the OFT. It seems so complicated.

Headers are where it's at for power and volume.

Lol. I already got my evo 3. It sounds amazing! And yea I definitely want to get a header ASAP.

Borla was one of the headers I was looking at it. How do you like it ?

Yea that is true. I most likely will go with ofh and the tablet if I can do enough research and learn how to use that thing. But how does it sound. And is there drone. Because that is also a concern of mine. Since I already have an aftermarket catback.

I hope you don't buy an uel header with a power compromising cat and has no rumble off idle, just so you could make your CBE not be loud.

Not every catted header loses power, look at the FT86SF, it makes great power and has a cat.

Completely skeptical on their claims, haven't seen any reason not to be.

Its easy

Step 1 Plug Cable in car port under dash
Step 2 Read File from car
Step 3 Flash the correct tune for you. They are clearly labeled
Step 4 Follow on screen instructions
Step 5 Enjoy the car with how it should have come from the factory

Super easy. Anyone can do it.

Oh shiiiiiiiiiii! I guess I'll be tuning my car sooner then I expected ! Lol. If I flash back to stock is there any trace of it for warranty cases ?

If they really want to spend the money and time sure but 99.9% you will be fine and going back to stock is the same process and choose original file

Someone has reviewed them and say they feel it on the "butt dyno", but yeah, I'd like to see some independent numbers to back up the claims too.
