Shane, I gained 32nm by adding my UEL headers to the equation. Now sits at 389nm. If you do the same you should get closer to the figure you're chasing.

I'll take all the help I can get in that department, so 400hp everyday of the week.

Shane, EL headers will get you more torque and quicker spool if you can handle sounding like a Honda with a fart cannon.

If my car sounds like a Honda then fark I love Hondas!

so you're saying you added aftermarket unequal length headers and gained 32nm?

I am also running the stock box still and do have Tomei UEL headers wrapped.
just curious, and considering you two both opted to keep the UEL burble but still go aftermarket, how does the exhaust note sound compared to the OEM UEL headers?

and what brand respectively

Here's some data for you to consider:

Figures are for (the same) MY06 STI....all on the MMS roller dyno and all using ECUTek III (Readings are all ATW):

MY06 STI + Stainless (Tomei) UEL headers: 197 KW + 409 NM

Above with UEL headers + CAI + silicon intake: 214 KW + 425 NM

Above with UEL headers, CAI, silicon + PW fuel surge setup: 217 KW + 430 NM

Above but minus headers and surge: 205 KW + 420 NM
