hi guys just a quick one headers on 94 sti after buying some aftermarket ones.im hearing a lot about equal or un equal headers whats the difference.? is the sound or the performance different between the 2. ? ? thanx

 

if you go equal you'll loose the 'scooby' sound. it will just sound like any other 4 cylinder

 

chatting to alloy off here the other day about this, apparentley fitting equal length headers (unegual being standard i presume ) will rid the scoob of the burble and making it much more like a superbike sound... so im told. but the performance gains are quite considerable im also told. i like my deep burble so im staying with the standard headers to be honest.

andy.

if ive got i the wrong way round somebody correct me before i make a boob of myself

 

ummmmm so not sure.lol un equal or equal so will both give out the same power then does anybody kno?

 

I believe equal length headers are supposed to give more torque than unequal length headers.

 

unequal = scooby burble

equal = more power and torque

 

I have equal length manifold on my scoob and still have a warble, less than before but still there, I was told that the std. manifolds limit the power that can be achieved but are not the most important unless you get to BIG figures. Someone on here will be able to tell you more on the benefits as I just did what I was told by the tuners.

 

Latest generation of JDM cars have equal length headers and they sound like this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xzkypVhbR74

man that sounds goood... totally not what im used to, more like a tuned evo type sound, but good nontheless

 

Its a bit more "jet fighter/rally car" sound to it now and people think my car sounds quiet on the inside you hear the whistle from the twin scroll turbo, great sound
