Subaru Headers

[HaydenB]

Is it worth to put UEL Headers on a 140k mile Subaru. I’ve had all the big repairs done

It sounds pretty terrible but whatever creams your Twinkie right?

Have you already done downpipe, IC, turbo upgrades?

what Subaru? forester? wrx? sti?

The short answer is no. Its not worth it.

I have a set of borla uel's i will sell you for 400 bucks. Pretty hard to find these days. Uel is a good enough for 400 and under horses. When you start to build for more hp, the uel design creates unequal cylinder heating, leading to premature engine failure and extremely awkward pulse widths, minimizing horsepower. Any upgrade over the stock cast design will be an upgrade. But kind of a pointless one, if you don't have the rest of your exhaust modified to allow for increased flow.

I agree

Get EL headers if its a wrx or something boosted, makes it sound like an actual turbo 4 cyl, UELs are what helps make that "boxer rumble" if you do wanna sound like every other subaru.

Btw it's an Outback Sport, basically the same as an Impreza. Might just throw on forester struts and steelies

Yeah if youre gonna do exhaust work on an NA subaru it might be better to just cut off half of it and put a resonator and muffler on so it doesnt sound all raspy.
