Tomei UEL header installed

Hey guys!
I installed my Tomei UEL header today & got to say i absolutely love it! It sounds amazing! I can't say much about it yet cause haven't driven it a lot yet but that'll come in time!

Install was very straight forward & less complicated then i thought it would be!

Anyway, here's a video!
Enjoy!!

Looks like you can wake up the dead with that sound

Oh well, it's 30-40 sec of absolute hell (cold start) but then afterwards it's alright!

Hey guys, little question, i'm seeing mixed "reviews" about plugging up the main airbox resonator on our cars... I know genome tuning used to make such plugs but can't seem to find them anywhere for sale... Does anyone know more about it? I don't like the look of the stock airbox with the resonator & don't count on getting an expensive CAI just for sound... (I already have a K&N drop in and i'm happy with it )

Help a fellow 86-owner out

Cold start + revs

Thought i'd share a cold start video of the car with the Tomei UEL and custom Skytune catback exhaust! Also got some revs in there! Enjoy!

I see you have some trouble pronouncing there...
I was waiting for that one to happen hahahaha

If you look up what it means it does really suit the car though
