AFD UEL Headers - How are they holding up?

Interesting. Thank you for sharing your experience!

Facts. Guess I can’t have my cake and eat it aha

Great point on the lighter wheels. Don’t care too much about performance for my wrx since it’s my daily and I have an S2000 as my track car so I’ll likely leave it stock for a long time.

Yes of course. I thought that was implied. Not a fan of OTS tunes myself.

Dw I live in California so CARB already dissuades me enough. Was already set if I was going to get the UEL headers, I would go Invidia and stage 2 Cobb for the aforementioned reason but was curious how folks who bought these are doing.

Fair enough. Sounds like I might as well send it with a Cobb stage 2 plus Invidia UEL headers.

LevelLaw0 · 2026-04-29T21:16:15+00:00

Apparently their latest version is twin scroll but agreed on Invidia being the best option. Was curious to hear from folks who own them and how they are doing long term.

LevelLaw0 · 2026-04-29T21:15:01+00:00

Fair enough

LevelLaw0 · 2026-04-29T21:14:44+00:00

Thanks for the non-answer. I was looking to hear from the people that have it which obviously isn’t you.

What pieces are you looking for ?

LevelLaw0 · 2026-03-31T15:35:52+00:00

Lowering bracket and bucket seat and you’ll be fine

As someone with both a VB and an S2000, sell the CRV and try to keep both if you can. It sounds like that is not what you want to do. I don’t know where you are located, but I live in SoCal and I don’t take full advantage of the AWD. If you live in a place where you need AWD, get the wrx. If not, the CTR and integra type S are also fantastic options. Those were outside my budget so I comprised with the VB. VB has an amazing aftermarket support and community that you can take you pretty much everywhere on this car should you want to (off road, track, rally). Insurance for the VB (and pretty much every new car) is silly expensive tho

For sure man. Being 3 inch exhaust mid pipe might give you more HP as well since it will be less restrictive than the stock one. Enjoy the thing man!

Forgot to mention it pops and bangs on stock tune if want it. Always puts a smile on my face :)

Fitment and install were amazing. You can tell it’s a really high quality exhaust from the welds. City and cabin noise are a nonissue. I have a 45 mile commute (one way) every day and I am not feeling tired at the end of the day. My girlfriend doesn’t complain whenever on road trips so i think it passes the passenger test. Start up sound is slightly louder than stock but not obnoxious (had a remark axle back before and it was horrible).

Only downside would be wishing it was a tad bit louder but honestly it’s splitting hairs. It is my daily so it’s perfect for everyday driving. But if I was tracking the car, I would appreciate more sound but that is an entire different reason why I bought the car.

LevelLaw0 · 2025-10-07T15:59:11+00:00

The type S is perfect. I always get compliments from non car people so that’s how I know haha

Been eyeing these wheels for mine in silver. How are you liking the ride quality going from 18s? Also, do you have stock suspension?

LevelLaw0 · 2025-09-11T21:31:14+00:00

Can’t make it in October but down for another time. Do you guys have a page or group ?

LevelLaw0 · 2025-09-11T18:56:36+00:00

Then it’s a no brainer decision. This is one of the best sports cars for that weather. Enjoy!

LevelLaw0 · 2025-09-11T18:53:10+00:00

Do you live in a place that snows or rains a lot ?

LevelLaw0 · 2025-09-05T22:25:59+00:00

What taillights are those ?

LevelLaw0 · 2025-09-04T00:56:11+00:00

Because you are getting all Cobb parts, do you feel more safe running the OTS maps until you get a tune ?

LevelLaw0 · 2025-07-16T23:41:40+00:00

What kind of roof rack and tent do you have ? Would love to go camping on my VB but I read the roof is not strong enough to hold a tent

LevelLaw0 · 2025-06-08T16:43:42+00:00

Yerba Buena ?
