That header looks crazy. Are there proven gains with it?

Yessir. It is RMF's Narrow design. VtecKiDD has some dyno graphs with ~10hp gain over stock ITR manifold when tuned. We shall see. I plan to put it on the dyno when I am done.

Do you mean a 98spec 4-1 ITR manifold?.....
A 10hp increase would be a fantastic improvement.
Im looking to get something that can give me the same sort of gains.

Did a few things tonight. Replaced all the 10mm bolts on the motor with new ones, installed new throttle cable bracket, and installed Skunk2 magnetic drain plug.
