Default which header

I was wondering which header would be a good choice for my daily driven ej8, the motor is a d16 with a intake and exhaust

go on ebay and look for a seller called tunigpros. jus ordered one off there for about 60 bucks. i got it and it has good high quality strong welds. make sure its from tuningpros, they have good product and fast shipping. most people say u get wut u pay for but this is really worth it.

I have an Airmass header on my delsol that i picked up new for $100. its made by holley so the quality is good. ive seen hit and miss situations with the ebay headers. its your choice to make, my preference is with namebrand products.

You're stock y8 manifold is better than anything less than $500.

Modify the collector and you'll be fine.

Though any n/a mod to a sohc is pointless unless you're trying to smirk all the people with real goals.

Then leave it stock. Buying ANYTHING before your swap can be considered money thrown in the toilet.
