MonstA Headers for GC8?
Has anyone got experience with the MonstA headers you can get for the GC8. I have been told the car doesn't sound like a WRX once installed. Are they a worthwhile investment. Power increase?

I installed a set of 'xs power' 4-1 equal length headers and got a retune, definately has more top end and feels better off boost
the sound of my car now though.......  i hate it, i wished i got some tomei unequal length ones instead

This is what i am trying to find out. It would kill me to loose the WRX rumble but if the gains are there i suppose i could live with it. Hard decision!!! So does anyone know the brand of header that you can buy that doesn't loose the cool unique WRX note.

to get rid of that horrible sound! That standard/horrible subaru thump thump thump... it is like a cross between a harley and a volkswagen, both of which sound CRAP!! Subaru got it right with the spec c /'03 onwards jdm sti, the ra-r and the s 203/204's. Equal length pipes standard and no horrible sound.

I am also a fan of the thumping sound of a WRX. It's unique and sounds mean. But i'm all in it for performance not show so i'll be installing them tomorrow.

I have done enough reading now to believe that there is a lot of gains to be made by having the after market headers installed. BUNG!!! They are going in.

good work reflex, you will love the sound on WOT and the crackling and popping off throttle
its just the lame ricey lancer sound whilst you're just driving around that you'll hate

Hey Stru, I remember seeing your car when i came and got the pressure plate off you. You fitted the late model STI top mount. Did you just use the brackets off the new top mount or did you get some fabricated. I was going to head to JWS today and get brackets
