HIGHLIGHTS
Full 304 Stainless Steel Construction
True Equal Length Runners - CNC bent and trimmed, less than 1% variance from the longest to the shortest
Innovative Cast Merge Collector - Low restriction inlet and outlet, smooth flow and consistent performance
Smooth, Restriction-Free Flow Throughout - Single piece mandrel bent tubing welded to a single piece merge collector removes unwanted “steps”
Thick 1/2in CNC Cut Flanges and 14ga Tubing - Added durability and longevity
No Tune Required - Safe to run, just bolt on
No Ground Clearance Loss - Clears factory skid plate without using spacers
J-Pipe/Turbo Bracket Included - Retain the support that other aftermarket headers lose
Gaskets and Hardware Included - Everything you need to install and hit the road
Manufactured and Welded In The USA - For consistency and top quality control
I was thinking you were gonna say "unfortunately we couldn't get the last stud out, so we're going with a new turbo" XD
This is more involved than I imagined. I had no idea the turbo and down pipe have to come out too. Might be more than a day project for me in the driveway.
If none of the bolts or studs strip, break, or seize up it shouldn't take you more than a day
@@Xxcolombia554 Ha ha knowing myself it could take several. 😬
I would definitely set out a weekend for it just in case you run into issues.
@@Brisky86 every mod takes me x3 as long as it should lol
Do a detailed video on how to do coolant flush
Awesome video! I always keep the splash guard on. I live in WA and they put a shit ton of salt on the roads in the winter. My turbo, Intake etc still looks pretty much brand new cause of it lol.
A great video. I like Grimmspeed products. Subies forever guys and gals.
Going to need some more sounds clips with full throttle!
Will be plenty of that once we go to the dyno. Car wasn't fully warm so I didn't want to go crazy.
Damn that sounds nice. What exhaust is that?
RIP Tomei UEL Header
What happened to it
@@Truth-is-objective he took it off and put the grimmspeed one on
Can i have the UEL, Kev?!
@@andrewtejada3164 We'll probably do a giveaway for it.
Since it’s a WRX isn’t the consensus that an equal length is much better for the fa engines; performance wise?
Unequal causes heat issues bank #4... gasses get trapped
Equal length are better for ej too - it just doesn’t come with it stock like the fa does
both motors
Unequal length headers disable the Benefits of twin scroll turbo, so you will lose spool, efficiency and top end.
You technically don’t have to take off the j pipe from the turbo. Just drop the turbo with the j pipe still attach.
If you're doing this by yourself in your garage, you're going to want to take the j-pipe off so you don't have a massive assembly to hold onto when you're dropping the header/turbo.
@@SubiSpeed I almost found it easier because it gave you a place to lift the whole assembly up and I put a jack stand under the j pipe to help hold the whole assemble up when I was reinstalling. I think it beats having problems with the studs.
Need a video on timing kit replacement
My hoses r good wat keeps spilling antifreeze is the male side of the hose it spills nd this one don’t spill
What were the dynamics results with the new header?
Did you see any signs of heat effecting any plastic bits or hoses with the UEL or these headers? Would you suggest any wrap or shielding? I would rather not, being in the Northeast and having rain, snow and salt a factor, but I also didn't see anything too close that shielding the header might help, but maybe Heatshield Armor on top to try and keep heat out of the engine bay?
Let's see the Dyno brooo 😁😁😁😁😁
Dyno?
Yes
Howd you get it to slide on the studs so easy?
Can’t seem to get mine on
Lost the boxer rumble with a slight increased in performance which can be trade off by staying UEL.
What’s that gasket called you said needs to be replaced on the turbo?
i was looking for the same answer hopefully someone responds
Why didn't you just upgrade the turbo and header at the same time?
Because I don't want the car to blow up haha
@@KevinVo dude, it's an FA20 not a 2JZ. It's a cheap ass engine. You don't have to crank the boost up. Hell you could throw a GT3582R on there, keep the boost under 16lbs and be good. Lol
i wonder how these compare to the killer b headers with no EWG
Killer b is elite.. nothing can compare
@@nikesbeast strange, how can you compare a product that has just came out without actually testing it?
@@pcbuild3468 they have 2 versions of their headers with and without EWG
isnt there a way to change the exhaust manifold without taking all that other stuff off??
I don’t think you can physically reach the nuts holding the manifold to the turbo unless you take it off together
Unfortunately, not :(
Hey can you guys do a video on what intake makes/gives you the most horsepower
What kind of torque stick is that??
Just a click-type torque wrench
Hi
Thank you for the install guide. Looks like a great quality product. For me the 30 hp is just not worth losing the subi rumble. So for me tomei uel is in my future. My advise dont waste your money on an header if its just another equal length. The money is better invested, or just on another other mod really.
This is a WRX not an STI. The FA doesn't have any rumble and comes with equal length headers from the factory because of the twin scroll turbo
nah elh is the way, at least with 15+ wrx
never remove exhaust studs when the engine is cold!
Ain't nobody putting their hands and arms around that hot ass downpipe/turbo.
Just use PB blaster or worse case scenario replace the studs. They're not expensive and it's not worth 3rd degree burns just to save a couple bucks.
This doesn’t seem worth it for some headers… way too much work unless you’re putting a j pipe and new turbo in while doing the headers.
You guys wanna sell that hood? 😂
Way too much work for a header. Why can't things be like the older vehicles every was accessable and easy.
Older cars didnt have turbos. Definitely not a difficult car to work on in comparison considering those extra parts.
