MAPerformance Equal Length Header | 2013-2024 Subaru BRZ / Toyota GR86 / Scion FR-S (BRZ86-2G-ELH)

The header fitment to the heads was great and the install was quite painless! Noise increase is marginal, but sounds nice with my HKS Spec-L II catback with no drone. Mid range did seem to pick up a bit, which is nice. The only reasons I didn't give 5 stars: 1) The OEM aluminum skid contacts the header and would vibrate, especially on start up. It was contacting 5 of the high spots on the skid (see pic). I ball-peened those areas and no more contact. 2) Despite having a cat, my CEL is popping on every few days. I didn't expect to have any P0420 codes with a cat, but maybe the high flow nature of this cat is causing issues?

I am very impressed with these headers. Everything arrived in perfect condition and the packaging was great. The installation was straightforward, and the performance gains are exactly as described in the specifications. You can really tell the build quality is top-notch. Highly recommended for anyone looking to upgrade!

The header is not to be installed for another 2 weeks ( I am not doing it because I want it installed without problems )
The sales person was great I was concerned about the header fitting correctly, having to tune my car , emissions, how loud and a few other things I can't remember because this is a street car I drive almost every day.
The sales person answered all my questions even the stupid ones and did not make me feel, uh, stupid.
New cars, new engines, new everything forget it! give it to a professional that knows what they are doing.

Rambling but Map Performance I will go to as my first destination for the products they carry.
Thanks!

Absolutely fantastic build quality. Install was relatively painless. As others have mentioned, you will need a swivel extension for the middle nut on the drivers side head. With the stock exhaust the added growl and throaty sound are still somewhat perceptible, and I'm sure will only get better once a cat-back is added. The car now pulls smoothly throughout the rev range and feels much more natural. Even without a tune the gains are quite easily felt and it's much more enjoyable now that I don't feel the need to drive around the torque dip. As much as I don't like the cliche, it should have come like this from the factory!

This piece looks great with the unique collector and welded tubes coming off of it! Simply un installed the Oem header which wasn’t to hard at all, you’ll need a ratchet, 14mm deep socket and an extension, Installed the MAPerformance header the same way the oem came off! The only tricky part I came across reinstalling is accessing the middle nut between the 2 tubes on the driver side, make sure you have a swivel 14mm for this part. Header to engine block studs get tightened to 22 ft/lbs. Also when installing the V-band to over pipe adapter keep the 2 bolts going into the over pipe slightly loose till you’re sure the v-band connection is tight and secure, Initial thoughts on cold start I could instantly hear the exhaust note gained some depth and throatiness! I also noticed during stationary revs it sounds like it gets through the mid rpm range faster than stock, my car has a HKS Hipower single exit and this combo together sounds so nice, not obnoxious but it gives the car the grunt it deserves from factory! Now to drive it and dyno it, will update then:)
