AJ124 118 Report post Posted July 17, 2015 Is that the 150 collector Mark? If so I look forward to seeing if it can remove the dip as well as the 350 collector does in the US. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ade 517 Report post Posted July 21, 2015 It appears to be the 350 collector? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AJ124 118 Report post Posted July 21, 2015 It does, I was under the impression the 350 had some fitment issues on RHD. But I could be wrong the FT86 thread has gone all over the place. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mark@Abbey M/S 235 Report post Posted October 29, 2015 (edited) Okay finally got our demo car back on our in house dyno last week; Ran the ACE headers with the 250 collector in the over pipe; 350 collectors wont fit on our RHD cars at the moment Gave awesome top end numbers but still has the torque dip , seems the Yanks can have the 350 header on there LHD cars us RHD owners can have the 350 header yet......but it is being worked on; Couple of dyno plots for you guys; DONT TAKE ANY NOTICE OF THE HEADER ON THE DYNO PLOTS it is FLYWHEEL bhp it is HUB BHP Stock car versus our car ACE 4-2-1 with 250 collector no 2nd cat and resonated Cobra exhaust system PURPLE ACE HEADER with 250 Merge collector/2nd cat de-cat pipe and Cobra Resonated systemGREEN totally stock car PURPLE same as aboveYELLOW HKS HEADERS with the same set up after headers We say about 250 and 350 collectors the below picture shows the difference; We are waiting for a 350 collector designed for our RHD cars. we are getting there , the cal files can still be worked on to help output but these dyno plots give the general idea; Edited October 29, 2015 by Mark@Abbey M/S 4 Quixote, Keethos, smudge and 1 other reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Quixote 35 Report post Posted October 29, 2015 Thanks Mark - looks like it's worth waiting for a 350 on the Ace header then...I guess sticking a decent high flow secondary cat in would drop the top end a bit but possibly a similar drop on both HKS and ACE?

Mark@Abbey M/S 235 Report post Posted December 9, 2015 Sorry for the delays replying , the 350 collector wont fit on the RHD cars , ACE have been trying to make the 350 Collector fit on the orginal primaries but it cant be done. So we are waiting for a complete redesign of the primaries to allow the 350 Collector to be worked into the Header design. Been told around 10 weeks wait.....maybe time to got FI again for a while I feel. I tuned car last week with the HKS headers with a HFC fitted , fully de-catted and exhaust system; Torque curve is below from the dyno; BLUE totally stock car GREEN bolt on parts no tune RED Green + Abbey ECUTEK tune 1 Keethos reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mark@Abbey M/S 235 Report post Posted January 6, 2016 In constant contact with ACE , still not a date for the new RHD only 350 header I am afraid 1 Keethos reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mark@Abbey M/S 235 Report post Posted February 14, 2016 ACE have been in touch to to say they have finish the 1st prototype RHD 350 header. " In the quest to build a "350" for the RHD guys we ended up building a header with over 150mm more runner. This is the highest torque output header we've ever built."

Sent from my HTC One M9 using Tapatalk If going by the 350 results in the states, these are the ones to have. They are also quite a bit more £ though.... This 400CS version has me wanting.

tegunulgener 84 Report post Posted March 1, 2016 Umm... I've got HKS headers fitted already. I do wonder what's the difference between them apart from the price. Sent from my HTC One M9 using Tapatalk Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mark@Abbey M/S 235 Report post Posted March 1, 2016 Teg, it as the Sprintex that is at its limit bhp/torque wise, I would not expect any gains to come from fitting a ACE 400 to your car. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
