4-1 headers is just one long piece which goes from 4 tubes to 1 long tube.

while 4-2-1 is two pieces (usually) comes out 4 tubes, then to its connected piece, which then becomes 1 tube. . . . i think i just confused myself LOL.

plus your pictures not working bro.

4-2-1 is typically 2 pieces, and 4-1 is where all 4 pipes meet at the collector. the 4-2-1 has 2 bigger pipes that meet at the colector.

thats a 4-1 dc header. JUNK. will make more power up top than stock, but not worth more than $10 in my opinion.

on a stock NA motor no header is really going to make much of a difference.

i agree, but ontop of that a 4-1 will make less torque in the low to midrange than a descent or even cheap 4-2-1 will. thats why i called it junk, because its not good enough for a DD and based on its design is for high rpm gains, which it still wont provide because DC headers STINK.
