header & exhaust
 
hey im getting an evo2 exhaust, and im am also getting a megan header, will the header make the evo2 sound raspy at certain rpms? i have headr that adding header to the prelude makes your exhaust sound really raspy up top. is this true? thnx.

No; however, that megan header is shit. Absolute shit.

But the exhaust is good. It doesn't sound raspy - isn't there another thread right below this about that exhaust?

It would be no different than having a dc header - won't sound raspy. I have a test pipe, and mine doesn't sound really raspy - low deep tone https://honda-tech.com/forums/images/smilies/emthup.gif

I think its overkill to say that the Megan is shit.

In terms of quality, its not bad. generally better than DC. In terms of power gains, it will do very little unfortunately. If you got one for a $150, its not a huge loss - you'll get ~2hp in the upper range and it looks good in your engine bay. Thats $150 you could have put towards a good budget header like Vibrant though. Vibrant is a Mugen copy, goes for $480 shipped, and makes gains on par with Mugen.

RMF - $800 - 10-15hp gain
