I rode in a BRZ with an EVO3 catback and it droned soooo bad for me and was terribly loud. Although you may be satisfied with your noise level now, a header is going to make that setup really loud.

Dear OpenFlash Customers,
We understand many of you have been waiting for quite some time for you header to show up. Due to the West Coast Port closure it has caused a major delay and headache for all of us. Good news is that our shipment of 25 has showed up. At the same time we have already prepped and shipped out all of the orders up until 4/1/2015. If you order after 4/1 your header shipment will be fulfill when the next shipment arrives. Right now the update is that we should get our next shipment some time next week. Everyone who ordered the header before 4/1 should have tracking either from UPS or USPS (international) orders. If you did not get tracking please email me at: sales@openflashperformance.com with your Full Name that was used to place the order and we will provide tracking for you. Those that ordered after 4/1 please be patient and we will fulfill your order as soon as the next shipment arrives. If you ordered the combo kit and would like to receive your tablet first please also email me at: sales@openflashperformance.com and I will make arrangement for your tablet to ship first. Again we want to apologize for the delay and thank you all for being so patient with us. If you have any questions please feel free to email us and we will get back to you.

Have a wonderful day, Cheers
Robert@Openflash

@Robert@Openflash @Shiv@Openflash

I'm planning to fit an aftermarket wideband in the rear O2 location, but my concern is that the longer rear sensor bung on the header may affect the accuracy of the wideband sensor reading, since the tip of the sensor is away from the exhaust flowstream(??)

Does anyone know of issues with placing aftermarket sensors on the rear O2 location on this particular header? Or do you think it'll be close enough for the sensor to pick up an accurate read?

If i were to purchase a OFH right now, today. When can I expect to receive it?

I would like to get a general idea of how long the wait will be before I pull the trigger.

Thanks guys.

@BBYZILA @Timmy_Jones @SCHN3LL

If you order today the soonest we will be able to deliver the header is around two weeks or so. We still have some headers on back order but we have one shipment coming in next week and another one the week after.

Cheers

Has anyone wrapped this header with it already fitted? Was it difficult to get it wrapped tightly?

Planning to wrap it but don't want to go through the hassle of removing the header.

For anyone wondering what this header sounds like paired with the stromung axleback. Vids don't do it justice but it's real rumbly in person

Probably better off getting it properly coated for a street car. From what I've heard, the wraps can hold moisture and cause accelerated corrosion issues.

Just planning my next few mods. I've narrowed down my header choice to OFH and Tomei. What are the main differences between the two? I'm planning a custom dyno tune as well.

Sorry if it's been covered.

Dan
