Two fifths of fuck all, just like every other x vs y fp question.

@mav1178 has owned several of these and would be best to comment even though he may not have the ace header.


The Fujitsobo and HKS are both dual resonated I suspect they may sound very similar, tomei seems it doesn't have any sort of resonator and from my experience will be loud and possibly very raspy

Performance difference? None.

Haha, oh i would be done in california. I'm looking at ACE 4-1 (1 piece) with nameless down pipe with HFC and resonator, stock mid, tomei 60s. Hopefully soon

Has anyone purchased the 4-1 yet?

I used to rock a Tomei front and 60R. Shit was retarded loud that I reverted back to stock exhaust but kept the tomei front pipe on. I can't imagine how loud it would be w that ace and straight pipe through. Totally would get black flagged at the track

i use to have the 60r with headers and stock FP that shit was fuckin loud. got 3 tickets so had to switch. also with the superchargher it will be 30% louder

Damn yeah I'll be going supercharger next couple of weeks and I'm picking up a TOmmy Kaira exhaust tomorrow. I hope it's not too loud once I get some ace headers. If not I'll pick up an Hks or fujitsubo resonated front pipe.

Only one way to find out, but there will be a performance impact.

It's a race header. The dynos on the posts at the begnining of this thread are completely different from the 4-1 header.

I heard your car at buttonwillow last weekend and it was really loud. I just picked up a Tommy Kaira exhaust and so far it's pretty quiet with the tomei front pipe. Can't wait to order an ace header. Hoping it's not too loud so it's within sound compliance.

ACE header with a straight front pipe (no cat or res) is going to be loud. I had the ACE header paired with the ACE front pipe on the stock catback (saving for a house so the catback has to wait) and it was still obnoxiously loud. Now I'm running the ACE header with JDL's ultra quiet front pipe (catted and res) and it sounds great, even with the stock catback. For that reason I'll probably just go with the FT86SF V1.

Having said all of that, it is my daily and I want it to sound civilized to some extent, but the ACE header + ACE front pipe has some of that high revving race car sound to it at 4500+ RPM and coming from someone that despises a raspy car, it sounded pretty good.
