I love those 4cyls that require headerS. At least get the terminology right, never hurts. I'd just have to say, not much, and the gains will vary in location depending on 4-1 vs 4-2-1.

I would say very minor gains can be found with just a header. Imports don't see gains like the v8's do from headers. Maybe 4 to 5, but someone else may have a dyno sheet they can post for you to get a better idea.

maybe it would also depend on what else the user has done to increase air flow. as far as power gain is concnerned.

Does an 's' at the end of a word always indicate plural? Does the lack of an 's' indicate singular? "I'm wearing pants carrying scissors, while looking at some moose and deer." hmm something to think about

in the context that he used the word headers. it would be for the most part correct.

Haha...nope. You can have 1 header or 2 or more headers. The things that he referred to were things that are exceptions to the rule. I had a 4-2-1 and noticed a lot more pull over 4k (but this was going from a dx header/cat to a DC 4-2-1 and no cat)
