Header - EC or TUV approved - does it exist?

Hello All,

After a few years with my stock gt86, I'm looking to improve my exhaust.

I've seen that one of the biggest exhaust restriction is coming from the stock header, and I'd like to change it. However, I want to remain street legal.

The problem comes from where I live. I am one of the few gt86/brz/frs owner living in Europe... in Switzerland to be precise; where a modification of your car is nearly considered as a crime.

After some research, I've been confirmed that for a header to remain street legal in my country, I would need to be able to bring a CE (european) or TUV certification for the header on the car. I continued to search, but did not manage to find any header complying to those certifications.

Does anybody know if a CE/TUV certified header exist for the GT86?

thanks!

I've received a few answers from suppliers, and I imagined it could help people looking for the same things as me
