Default My Custom UEL h23a headers!

Hi!! I wanna say thx for the idea, im in the process to do the same principe :



But a friend of mine say this setup could push unwanted exhaust of cyl 2 in the 4?

If you check the pincipe that the subaru the firing order is Not the same but the cyl of the others runner on the headers is closed.

The way we do it look like we gonna send unwanted pressure on valve....?


Sorry for my crapy english, im not bilingual, lol


Have a Nice day every 1

Well like I have said before, I have not noticed any issues with mine so far. When I was first researching this setup, I made sure to match the cylinder firing orders just like a subaru does. There shouldnt be any reversion pressure going to any valves

Well thx!
But if you look carefully the firing order of the subaru prevent réversion because all piston are close on the same side but with our headers design, the pattern look risky, well i dont think the exhaust pressure gonna be enough to push the valve but i did my homework even if you compare the firing order of a h4 vs i4, the piston dont move the same way,
well mine is almost finish, gonna wrap it, have seen a noticeable sound change?
Have video or pictures installed?

Wraps hold moisture and will cause your header to rust out.

It really isn't worth it. Even if your header is coated.

You might want to consider skipping the wrap though.
Powdercoat already does a going job of dealing with temps.

But if you got the money then
It's not like you paid $600 for your header + wrap looks awesome!
My bet is that you will be well on your way into a different project before you have any issues.

DragonEye has successfully hijacked F22's thread.
It is now a race to see who posts a video first.

nobody cares about your exhaust leak when your video should be about the sound coming out of your muffler lol
