Never heard of them. I’m skeptical of shopping anywhere but 86speed, ftspeed, counterspacegarage, or mapperformamce JDL doesn’t even have any catted UEL on their website. They don’t even have their UEL on their website. It’s annoying. My exhaust manifold is failing and I need an aftermarket one and I can’t find any but the shitty ft86speedfactory ones and those are not worth buying according to most tuners.

I can’t find a single set of headers on sale though it’s kind of odd.

because everyone is dealing with the same shipping delays, or they're all sourcing from vendors who are experiencing delays with raw materials, or they're all just ordering from overseas and no one realizes it.

pick any/all of the above.

like if you wanted Tomei headers or Gruppe-S, they're all out of the same place and subject to overseas delays.

So why is JDL not selling UEL headers anymore? Even ace is out of stock on everything.

See my above comment.

This is lame. I couldn’t even get an OEM radiator and was forced to get a Mishimoto because all OEM Subaru radiators were out of stock in the country.

So? Stainless is hard to get and most grades have almost doubled in cost over the last year alone. I have open orders with vendors that are a year old and lead times on new orders upwards of 73 weeks out.

Buy used, keep waiting, or actually call and ask them what their lead times are. I dunno about JDL but most of the manufacturers I deal with are 2-3 times normal lead time and market demand is currently higher then normal.
