That was exactly my reaction when I put mikes headers/ high flow cat pipe on. 2018 6 speed here. Loved the build quality. Sound is amazing, I still have my stock resonator and a nameless performance muffler delete. Not raspy at all, sounds smooth. Interesting to hear how the cvt sounds like. Glad you like it!
Binge watching ya vids....i got a random idea that i needed a crosstrek and it needed to be modified. Thanks for vids and potentially costing me a few thousand dollars.
Liking the new sound! I was watching this video thinking to myself “ I feel like this guy goes to EDM shows” and sure enough you pull away and big EXCISION X on your back window lol 🙅🏼♂️ Throw that X up! I have a 2021 White Crosstrek Sport that I’m slowly building up to my preference. Great videos man, thanks for sharing!
Awesome thorough video bro !! I was always curious how this setup sounds. Glad everything was up to par for you buying from this guy. Now you make me want to get this instead of doing another 1 inch lift on my Trek haha
Thanks for posting! Did you have any issues with the car passing state emissions test after the install? Also, what was the MPG hit? Tempted to do this to my 18 6MT ‘trek.
No, it is literally engineered to be factory spec just Unequal. So no problems with emissions! And as of running them for a few months now I haven't seen a mpg hit.
Awesome video, just got an 2018 6-speed Crosstrek and would love to get this uel headers soon thanks to your review and comparison. My biggest question is can I keep original muffler or do I need an aftermarket?
Well I would say if you want to see some performance gains I would go with a catback system like I have. But if you just want the sound the original muffler shouldn't bog it down too much, I don't think.
Hey man ! Love your videos, I was just wondering were you planning on modding your trek that much when you bought it ? If not, do you regret not getting the 6speed manual ? I feel like the headers, exhaust and pedal commander might sound better without the cvt ?
Oh yeah, you should've seen my FJ! Modding my vehicles is one of my biggest hobbies. Nah I don't regret it at all, San Antonio traffic isn't very forgiving and besides I wouldn't be banging gears in this slow thing anyway lol. I'll save the 6speed for when I get a WRX. And as far as sound I don't think it will make too much of a difference, you'll get the same sound just have the satisfaction of hearing the shifts.
@@StradysWorld ha you have had an fj a modded it? I have an 07 you can see it on my channel and a 2020 Crosstrek. Video there also. Video was within the 1st hundred miles I've changed it completely now and will do another video when it is done. Point I was getting at is I've met a lot of folks who have had FJ's and got the trek as well. Or to replace. Great video man.
To my knowledge no. Any exhaust work doesn’t void warranty, I thought the manifold spacer would void it. But nope I’ve had no issues with my dealership 🤷🏽♂️
From what I know, if a problem is not caused by your mod, Subaru warranty covers it. If a problem is caused by your mod, it is not covered. Depending on the dealership, even if your mod does not cause the problem, they can say it did and not covered by the warranty and you pay for it. That's what the sales representative told me.
Might be a silly question, but, when you on a regular hill, at a light and you’re at a stop, does the car want to roll back or does is stay in place when you release the brake? 30days out from purchase and this is something I’d like to avoid in my next purchase, especially with the option to modify!!! Thanks in advance!
Do it you won't regret it! And yeah I've heard both side of the warranty debate, but I personally have not had any issues with my warranty upon doing this mod.
@@StradysWorld thank you for the quick reply. These cars are daily’s each with 100 mile commutes (round trip) so we’re not gonna go stupid with non-practical mods.. just enough to make them our own.
@@PennsylvaniaDualSport I understand completely and in that case, I wouldn’t recommend my exhaust setup, this puppy costed me a pretty penny lol. I would look more into Remark, Namless, Crawford, Lp Adventure for some more affordable muffler options!
@@StradysWorld has nothing to do with affordability as much as something we’d want to live with on long commutes. Your UEL header sounds great but would probably drive us up a wall with an hour commute into work. Not to mention I leave at 4 in the morning. Not very neighborly. Something with tone thats not rappy. For what it’s worth.. she has the manual so it would inherently sound better on hers anyway. Our other hobby is off road motorcycles. We each have a few. You want to talk about an expensive hobby between modding bikes, maintaining bikes, (I get hours out of a rear tire on my enduro bike.. not rated by miles ) Then gear for everyone. Like with these cars.. we have to buy two.. Of everything. Good times lol
@@StradysWorldUEL headers will actually give you more power, but the power will be delivered differently compared to El. With UEL you gain more mid-range torque and with EL more high-end torque, however, to actually take advantage full of these headers, you will need a tune.

How loud are the pipes with that muffler delete? Are my neighbors going to hate me like the nameless website claims?
@@JamieUtah it’s not very loud
The 6 speed definitely has a different sound. It devs slower due to having a flywheel
Sounds awesome!!... has your MPG changed since you installed the UEL headers from Stock?
Dude that sounds GREAT!!! One of the best vids for before/after. Thanks for sharing and the fyi on the clearance issues!
Binge watching ya vids....i got a random idea that i needed a crosstrek and it needed to be modified. Thanks for vids and potentially costing me a few thousand dollars.
Oh damn I didn't expect the white mudflaps to look this clean. I was going with the black on white, but now this has me confused.

Absolutely do it. I have it on mine, send your questions to my Instagram and I’ll be happy to answer them @carssson

@@StradysWorld you get a CEL or have to clear any codes (engine running lean, etc) ?
I’m hoping to get a wilderness 2.5L and do this. Sounds awesome, curious as to how the 2.5L will sound with UELs
Sounds Amazing!!
Me: *thinking the new install sounds bad
*gets to takeoff in video*
Also me: 👀damn that sounds good
I've been looking for headers! 3 years later, do you still have them installed? And how have they held up?
I have a tomei and it sounds great now i wonder how it'll sound woth headers😍
That would sounds insane!
Bro. Too sick ! 🔥

Do you have plans for tuning your trek in the future?
Maybe in the farrrrr future! I’m gonna milk this warranty first 😂

Is Mike STILL making those headers?
Any check engine lights?

Nice video !! How I found a header for my Impreza 2019
Subscribed because of this vid
Hello there, nice video! Thank you! What is your guess about how much HP you have gotten? What di this mod do to your gas mileage? Thank you again!
Did this full exhaust do anything for hp or mpg?
After you had them on for awhile did you hear any engine knocking any issues?
Sounds sick.
You still have this car?
Couple of questions: 1 does this pass smog? 2 are getting error code? I really want to do it so bad but not sure if this is plug and play.
1. I have no idea that a question for the company. Here in Texas we don’t have smog rules. 2. Zero codes, completely plug and play.
@@StradysWorld thank you
How to order to rallisports automotive ? I am looking for that one to my subaru impreza 2019
Thinking of doing this as well on my 2020 Impreza ! Will installing UEL headers void my warranty? I’ve heard both sides & so I’m not sure
Do it you won't regret it! And yeah I've heard both side of the warranty debate, but I personally have not had any issues with my warranty upon doing this mod.
How are the power and torque gains.
Paired with the manifold spacer, pedal commander and intake it has some pretty decent off the line torque now!
how did that work with the CVT, any issues?
No issues at all sir!
@@StradysWorld you sure about that, or does it work best on the 6M
You calling me a liar? I can’t speak on the 6 speed I have the CVT
@@StradysWorld had it on the CVT but now is on the Orange xtrek with a 6M right.
Pretty sweet but IMO not enough for that price tag
Doesnt make one for the 2021 2.5l .. :(
Awh really?! Give him some time, I had to wait a little over a year for him to produce these!
@@StradysWorld i emailed him, he said the 2.0L should bolt up, and if any changes need to be made, he will do it for free
I figured they would! I didn’t think they changed the header manifold of the 2.5l enough to warrant a whole new design of headers.
@@revoracer523 any issues with the fit on your 2.5L?
My wife and I both have 2018 crosstreks. I know... 🏳️🌈 LOL!
Our question is what muffler are you running. Sounded not too loud not too quiet. Thanks
Haha that’s awesome! I’m running the aFe catback exhaust system it comes with High-Flow 304 Stainless Steel Muffler

To answer your question Andres. How I learned it, UEL headers is just for rumble. Equal length headers is for hp.
@@StradysWorldUEL headers will actually give you more power, but the power will be delivered differently compared to El. With UEL you gain more mid-range torque and with EL more high-end torque, however, to actually take advantage full of these headers, you will need a tune.
I now know my next mod. I wonder how they'd sound on my 18 cause I have an Invidia catback dual 4" exhaust 😁
Oh man that would probably sound like Heaven!
@An Cn look up fb20frank on instagram he has the same ones
What do you think of the CNT Racing UEL headers? Anybody personally have them?
CNT headers aren’t available atleast when I made this video for the 2nd Gen Crosstrek. So I can’t comment an opinion on them.
Did this need a retune?
nah
Kinda cool.
Will this fit a 2017 impreza?
These one’s no. He actually has a specific one for the first Gen Crosstrek/Imprezas! Check the description it’ll take you to the site.
@@StradysWorld will i need a tune after getting headers?
Nope not for these!
Does anyone know if this will work for a 2019 outback? Or if there are options for an outback?
Contact rallisport or inferno fabrications to see if they make one for your car
No tune needed!!?? 🤨
Nope, no tune needed for this brand's headers. AVO headers on the other hand will need a tune.
Looks like u lost power on acceleration
I mean I didn’t floor it lol 🤷🏽♂️
Not very smart putting a second cat so far down. If it doesn't reach operating temperature a cat is useless. Better go with a resonator
Well I've seen no problems
@@StradysWorld yeah it's doesn't break anything but is a lot less efficient. Still works very well to remove the raspy sound
🤭
Сколько же это стоит 🤦♂️
