un-equal length headers on JDM STI twin scroll??
 
is it possible to put some Ported STI 8 un-equal length headers on the STI JDM twin scroll ?? i will still keep the up-pipe...

Why?
Its a BIG step backwards, and you would probably have to replace the down pipe as well.
Pro's..... errrrrrm a flat 4 sound?? :shrug:
Cons, loss of bhp, loss of torque, would need a remap, would loose that even better rally car sound (jet fighter if you like to call it that ;))
If you want a flat 4 sound, get a type uk ;)
If you want a car that doesnt need to have ported headers to get torque/bhp, then stick with a JDM twin scroll :D
Just look at how much work you need on a type UK to get the sort of bhp/torque you do on a JDM, your going backwards doing something the car definately doesnt need (cos the original part is BETTER ;))

All you need on one of these for 360bhp is an exhaust and filter, you should have atleast 360lbs of torque at the end of it, 370+lbs is more like it, seen them with 400lbs with just an exhaust and filter ;) (remapped)

Tony:)

PS, no I wouldnt want to change the sound back, the car is a lot smoother without the uneven idle that uneven lenght headers give you :p
