Default b16 in 95 dx coupe, header question

I'm planning on getting a header, 4-1 for my b16 (95dx coupe). I went to the exhaust shop too see how much they would charge to put an exhaust on. The guy said, a lot of times the header sets to low (ground clearence) and they have to cut a section out. I don't think this is true. If the b16A2 jdm version sets in a si-r just fine with headers, why wouldn't it work on mine? Give some answers people, thanx

Just drive to the shop open header instead of them putting the header on trying to charge extra

Your 4-1 header will sit low since they were made for B18Cs with a taller block. You can run it low or cut a section out and reweld. I say just run it low and watch out for speedbumps/potholes.

If they make a 4-1 specifically made for the B16A2, then there shouldn't be a problem.

it actually does sit very low to the ground but you shouldn't have to cut anything
