HKS Super Manifold vs Catless UEL
So I saw that ft86speedfactory got in the hks super Manifold and saw that it was carted but the cat was very tiny. I was wondering how the power would compare to say a Tomei UEL or a catless JDL? Is it a big power difference? Would it be noticeable? I realize the tune affects everything also but a stage 2 tune with the hks vs a stage 2 tune with another brand? Like how different could it be?

Depends on the rest of your exhaust setup? Power wise it's not much of a difference between cat vs non cat. It's more of the design of the header. If going with the OFT tune stick with the UEL desgins.

Read up on header design and do alot more research before thinking about any brand of UEL header. If the runners are not equal length the header design is flawed Opinions may vary Physics doesn't

Yeah I’ve read over that thread awhile back. I got interested in the hks parts when I realized that I have no ground clearance with my GReddy Evo Gt catback exhaust. Therefore I wanted to swap over to something else and the hks ones seem to have better clearance. Then it got into finding a header. Stuck on a Tomei or JDL but the hks ones look nice. I just don’t want to do the EL because I’m not trying to sound like a 90’s Honda riding around. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Also, the HKS uel headers do look pretty cool, imo. Also that tiny cat in it is unlikely to affect performance whether you knock it out or not. Honestly, I say go for it if you have to money.
