I would love a full Fujitsubo setup... but can you imagine how much shit I would get from people for spending $2200 on a header when I already got yelled at for this catback? Lol. Also, that's a LOT more than I can afford anyway :P

Let's just say I was cross-shopping this with the Dezod exhaust

Swap it to my car?

Not a bad deal then. I had a chance to get the Authorize R locally from a forum member a while back and I passed on it. I probably should have gotten it in hindsight. Dezod is cool too though.

2200 is quite the pretty penny I know...but hey! You get the overpipe too hahaha!

I can say that the header is very nice though. Doesn't cause a routine CEL. It comes on and goes away very seldomly. I haven't tuned it so I can't speak to it's performance beyond the stock tune. It feels as if my powerband became "unhinged" or "unlocked". It's a bit of a throatier sound in a very tempered way. Moreover, I just feel like the difference on the stock tune can be felt once you get past the torque dip and the torque comes back in, the car just wants to take off and I didn't feel that before the header.

Still happy? No issues?

I'm obviously 1 of 7

No issues! I should point out that while I made this video more recently, I've actually had the exhaust on the car for closer to two years now

I don't understand all the people bashing on this exhaust. I honestly love it and it's been one of potential catbacks on my wish list.
