The thing you were calling a midpipe is called the overpipe. Something that makes it a lot easier to remove is to remove the nut for the engine mount from the passenger side and jack the engine up just about an inch. Overpipe will slide right out
its quiet because the rear muffler. at 11:22 you can see the big ol' muffler. I just have a PLM axel back muffler delete and it is definitely louder than this car with the headers. Just pop a muffler delete and it will be plenty loud. I've even seen people with just headers and a axel back muffler delete and its louder than this. Good video though, sounds and looks very tasteful.
Just bought some headers for my 86 totally new to the car scene just figured out I either need a friend to help me install them or learn by myself since socal shops won’t do it 😂
The sound is 100% the exhaust you’re running, this is a late comment but I own an frs and got the borla catback. My sound changed dramatically with my cold air intake installation.
Hi there. Did your ECU throw a code with the new headers before a tune? I would like to know because I purchased the same header but unsure if I should get a cat fooler first before tuning the car.
I agree with the other guy, got either Tomeu or UEL headers and unequal length if you want to fix the torque problem. Equal length if you want top end power
4:46 they have the extension so that the sensor stays a little cooler and no check engine lights come on, because without a cat on the headers a lot changes in terms of sensor readings, the extension is definitely not to make it easier to remove just saying
I'll be doing mine this weekend. Snatched up the same megan uel headers and overpipe. I already have invidia n1 catback, how you think it'll compare to this setup as far as sound?
I think that sounds perfect. I don’t like super loud n/a cars. That seems like a easy install.
i live on dirt with no garage so sadly ill have to take my 86 into a shop to get my uel headers installed but still excited regardless

Thanks for the feedback bro!

I have a car back exhaust and it sounds nun like that instead it sounds better, maybe consider another higher end quality exhaust ?
thanks for the video bro! planning on dwoing my headers this spring!
I think you need to get a new cat back exhaust because that's not very loud mine just has a Cat-Back exhaust and its way louder than that
Do UEL headers cause a check engine light? I still need to change out the overpipe and headers on my BRZ but I really really don’t want to get a CEL.

I'm pretty sure the intake is good stock

sounds awesome. there is no down pipe. its not turbo. its just exhaust tubing inbetween the exhaust parts
It's the overpipe
I hope the next upgrade is tires? Sounds good though
What kind of mpg did you get with this with no tune?
I'm starting to hear that the borla uel headers make the car quieter. Is that true?
Edit: also do you know what the torque specs are?
Do you know what side skirts and front lip ya boy had?
How are the headers holding up? No leaks/ cracks? I’m heavily considering getting these and a tune to avoid the torque drop lol
I would say get either tomei or jdl uel headers. the quality on those is top notch

Thanks for the info!! Makes sense!
Do I need a tune to run the headers
Catless yes with cats no
It’d be great if you showed the part where you took the o2 sensor off it’s being a pain in my ass
Need to take that down pipe out asap I toke may on brz sound was awesome

I think it will be a bit louder but it should sound really good!
are your megan racing headers catted or catless?
they are catless, you can tell @@ej-rg2ww
sounds good.
Nice 👍🏼🔥🔥
Did you get a check engine light?
Nope!
yo bro are these headers carted or catless?
catted*
Catless, they just have flex pipes
What name exhaust is that
cool
Thank you!
Aye lanic my boy
That Miami accent tho
It's the exhaust he wants it loud greddy gt or invidia n1 will make it loud
I’ve got the invidia and tomei uel headers on mine and it’s crazy
Before 1:50, After 10:25
Please buy some new tires lol
Uel headers turns 4 cylinder into a v8
what exhaust did you have installed before the headers?
