Like 30 to 40(on an good day) more ponies, nothing crazy. I guess in this car it should make it nice and fun.

Really. Not more like 10? What kind of exhuast?

Now before you start calling me rice-a-roni or whatever, I would like to say two things.

1) This isn't me just making numbers up, people get up to 30hp on 93 octane and 40+ on E85. Average I would say about 25.

2) It isn't just the exhaust, it is the tune as well(usually 50% or more!). Depending on the exhaust(mostly headers) you can get 7 extra ponies or 15 more !! While the tune does the rest. And incase you don't believe me. DYNOS!!

Here is a really good one!

This one is amazing!!!

Last one, I swear!

Sorry about the long response, I just want you to know I am not blowing steam out my ass!

It isn't exhaust. It is exhaust+tune. The tune will do 50% or more of the work. The exhaust will net the other 10 to 15 or so hp.

I forgot to mention this is headers! The most important part of the exhaust.

full exhaust and a tune i can see a 20hp gain. Hope it all works out for you

I hope so too, if anything a supercharger may be in the future. . . maybe.

Road and track with a header exhuast and tune net 12.1 hp gain with only a 6 hp gain on top. You are never going to get that much power. That being said, power under the curve from a tune over factory will feel great and throttle response will be nice.

I guess that is on normal. Hell even a company testing their product got 12hp gain over stock(with headers+tune). Now in my defense, I have seen dynos of just exhaust+intake+tune get up to ~30hp. For example these guys, and their testing with different headers and tune got a 20hp gain with just headers( baseline was about 166 to 168 ). . .

Thoughts?

Which headers make more power uel or el? That could be part of it. I'm sure there is a little more power with dyno tuning too. Intakes in the past on subarus haven't provided much in gains, maybe the f20 is different? Good luck, I say get the supercharger, I bet it wakes that car up!

I am going to wait and see how the engine takes FI over a long period of time, so far nothing bad has happened, particularly with a supercharged track car with 40k miles!!

The FA20 is the same, all intakes pretty much suck, it is best just to get a drop in filter. And to answer your question, EL wins up top, but UEL gives a bit more torque lower down. In the end it is more a choice of sound if anything. The dyno's I linked were UEL.
