Default Do JDM B18C5 headers fit USDM B16A?

I tried to do some searches, but didn't find any. Can anyone chime in. I'm new to hondas. Is there any better alternatives if they don't? Does anyone recommend Mugen or Spoon headers?

Mugen, Spoon, Hytech all make good headers. The JDM ITR header is good as well for less $$$. Should work.

b16/gsr headers will have differen't lengths for the converter, if you're getting a shop to do custom piping or you have an eliminated pipe you'll be fine.

But i'd get the one that matches up to your cat if yu have one.

JDM B18C5's do not exist.
B18C is the JDM Type R and the JDM GSR, so be very careful when shopping for parts.

the JDM B18C (R) headers do fit the B16.

Are you looking for a direct bolt-on to your existing cat? If so, the JDM ITR header won't work, but it can be installed if you also purchase a custom 2.5" cat.

There are certainly better alternatives to the JDM ITR header, both in terms of value and overall performance. It really depends upon your budget and what sort of installation you're looking for.

If you want something that bolts right up, you'll find that nearly all the choices are going to perform similarly. DC Sports is probably the most popular, though the Greddy header is quite well made and would be a nice alternative. Comptech is also a very good bolt-on option, but no longer readily available.
