Hey Hide, this is Derek, sorry to hear about that :/ Thanks for your help that day at the shop, I hope everything gets worked out soon.

Thanks to everyone at EQ for being so helpful with the engine swap and the parting out of my chassis.

What about a "3 pulls for laughs" baseline sort of thing with no wideband? Same price? I just have this dream of seeing a Justy on a dyno, replete with double-digit output. Barring any oil leaks of course...

Here is our new stock location header/UP!



The header itself is a quality piece, but it is made overseas just like all the other popular headers on the market today. Its a proven equal length design and is full stainless steel. The UP is a piece we make in house to fit this and any other 3-bolt flanged header. Our UP and Header features our unique leak free double slip joints for easy installation and thermal expansion.

The UP also features a unique tapered design to create a more laminar flow and aid in turbo spool/response. The UP starts with a relatively large 2 3/8" pipe at the 3-bolt flange to match the size of th outlet of the header collector. It then uses a smooth transition to taper down to 2" to match the inlet size of most larger stock location turbine housings.

We will also be making several different versions of this UP. One version will be specifically for stock VF series turbos and will have a second taper down to 1.75" to match the inlet size of the stock turbine housing. Another version will be available with provisions for an EWG. These options will actually be modular and interchangeable at the slip joint. So instead of having to buy a completely different UP if switching turbos or EWG/IWG, you can just buy the top half of the pipe.

As with most EL headers, you can expect a good 10-15whp and 20-30ft-lbs gains on a healthy stage 2 setup. Our unique UP design will also eliminate most of the lag people usually associate with aftermarket headers.

We're still working on final pricing on this, but it should be in the $700-$800 range.

Thanks

$10 less for no wideband .

We'll have slightly better pricing for special events and dyno days.

Thanks
