Default American Racing Headers - Header System


Looks like they are in the prototyping stage for making headers and possible a full exhaust system for the RCF.
Should be interesting to see how they compare with what is currently out in the market right now.

That's Bassem's RCF. They're out in Long Island near me. I had a friend who told me they were looking for a test car, i had tried to reach out to them and volunteer mine but no response haha. Curious to see how this turns out!

glad to see ARH making stuff for lexus now, they are huge in the domestic market and even make some for euro cars. Maybe a cat back isnt too far behind? ARH has some of the better sounding cat backs for the mustang at least.

Yes that's true. My friend has a 2015 Mustang GT with their headers. It sounds good, hey dynoed at 420whp. I believe we are neck and neck from a 55 mph run to around 130ish. He just got an intake manifold so I expect him to beat me after that.
If you're in the Houston area, i'll send you a message the next time we have a CL meet (we have a few non-lexus that joins usually... the mustang gt and a gt500).

Hell yes!! Now let's get Kooks on board and we will have some actual affordable, quality header systems out there that make power and I'm sure will sound awesome.

I'm excited, they've been in the business for a long time and produce a quality product. Even their viper and corvette offerings are affordable compared to what is currently out for the RCF, if anyone can make power on our cars with headers it's them.

Nick and the guys at ARH produce quality products. If you are an RCF owner in the market for headers, this is extremely good news.

PPE is also an excellent choice, and a forum sponsor

^^^^^I would argue with that. Forum Sponsor PPE has been building headers and exhaust systems for Lexus vehicles for quite some time. They cover the GS, IS, LS and of course all "F" vehicles. For the F's they have both EL and UL length Headers that have an unquestioned build quality and are extremely well designed. Their exhaust can be conventional or dual mode with lots of options. My ISF has been equipped with their equipment for 6 years now. Absolutely no complaints.

I suggest you check them out Nick C.

When the best is already available, why wait on an unknown?

I've seen their headers on mustangs and camaros. Great quality, and love the collector design. Wish they made some for my '92 fox body! Can't wait to see what they come up with for Lexus.

They focus primarily on late model domestics, so I'm sure the RCF wasn't a huge priority for them.
