good luck, just read the rules and i lol'ed. says you need full interior but can rip out the seats, cage and take out the hvac and audio so NOT full interior at all. good luck!

Good luck in the shoot out!!!

Cant wait to see everything welded and complete. I'm curios how beneficial the twin scroll will be, especially to those using a small frame turbo only shooting for around 300rwhp or so.

We are only shooting for 400rwhp

Prove it :P

Any plans for a dual rear muffler? Until someone comes up with a replacement rear bumper section that gets rid of the second exhaust cutout I'm not too keen on the single tip thing except for track use. Just looks tacky, like a cheap Civic body kit made for a twin tip exhaust combined with a pepboys muffler.

I would have liked if this car did a single oval or twin tip center exit exhaust a la the Porsche Cayman.

Can you guys give us any info about your background? It seems like everyone and their grandmother is coming out with an exhaust for this car, how are we supposed to separate the "I can weld pretty so we're making exhausts" (And your welds are gorgeous btw) and the "I know how to engineer an exhaust that is going to really work with this car" companies?

From your work I'm really hoping you're in the second category.

Cheers

I don't have any affiliation with JDL, nor have I heard of them before stepping foot onto this forum, but in others such as EVOM etc I have heard nothing but rave reviews - which makes sense given the precision and mastery of their work.

I don't think we have anything to worry about in terms of reputation or skill set with these guys, they seem upfront and honest and in my experience more than obliged to answer questions.

I have no affiliation with them either and judging by their responses and active forum use with our community, they are a great company. Read through this thread and you will see some great R&D they poured into their header design along with their collector research.

I'm really looking forward to the JDL UEL because it is going to be an extremely high quality header that fulfills my need for an awesome sound in my exhaust. These guys are top notch like the Nameless folks. I'd love to visit their shop and have them install the header! Road trip!
