Yes, I was comparing stock to aftermarket, because per the OP's build log he still has a stock front pipe.

That collector really worries me, but other than that looks like a solid piece. Nice detailed review...

Sure the collector isn't as pretty as Tomei or JDL but its also 1/2 the price of the others. I'm tempted to order one to be honest.

i hate to burst your bubble, but just throwing on a header doesn't make the dip go away, you have to tune that out and the OFT is not going to do what you're hoping. I strongly suggest you find a tuner who can give you a custom tune to experience the best that this mod has to offer.

Or would you rather spend 650 for a custom tune that was created for your engine to give you the most reliable bump in power. your car is worth $20000, is $200 really worth risking it?

Edit: you can also pay an additional 220 for the Openflash team to build you a custom tune, so you still come out ahead of the ecutek |
