Just bought itr headers, invidia test pipe?
K, so today i just picked up some slightly used ITR headers from a friend for 75$ plus my old b16 headers, they're authentic, he just needed to get rid of them. I'm in the middle of collecting parts for my project ek hatch right now, and im planning on going all motor, and for the time being, stock internals.
So far i have (in the way of performance for the hatch)
-password jdm kevlar intake
-itr headers
-b16a2 motor and tranny
-gr2 shocks and struts
-spp exhaust? ive never heard of it, it was just on my parts car. (99 civic si)
i want the most power out of my exhaust as possible, and i was thinking about test pipes to replace the cat, and i just wanted a second opinion (i would ask friends but theyre into rally art)
but how decent are the invidia test pipes? how much additional HP could i expect?
thanks.

that header isnt going to help much with all them dents in it, just get a test pipe for cheap and high flow cat, and switch them for emmsions, but that header is deff f'd up

Yeah, doesnt even have the mounting points for the heat shield.
You wont extract much power out of your 1.6 with stock internals. The amount of power you would gain from a test pipe is not worth the raspy tone that goes along with running a test pipe.
