Default high end header?

has any one ever used this header? seems to have really good ground clearance and claims to have the best numbers on dyno compared to any massed produced tri y header on the market. lol just the ground clearance is enough for me lol

It's a knock off of the Camp1320 header, believe dyno results when they are seen not just by word of mouth.

My ground clearance isn't bad, I wouldn't doubt that most people just aren't getting the slip joints all the way together since mine isn't even as low as the center beam on the subframe.

Yes, all 4 pieces slip together. I have the hytech rep and I had to cut a piece of the crossmember in order to prevent rubbing. It's a good header overall. You can google the dyno results online as their are numerous people that have dynoed them with good results. Good luck!

In my experience, Co's like this that claim the BIGGEST GAINS are full of ****. PLM claims the same, yet have no dynos to prove it.
Marketing bullshit.......

its called high end header... do you see a brandname? cant be a high end header if they cant list the brandname, if you want good a good header go for a mugen 4-1.. expensive but well worth it

Mugen doesn't make a 4-1 for our car and the 4-2-1 isn't much better than the stock manifold, you're pretty much just paying for the name.

C'mon man seriously? Isn't much better than a stock manifold? Were you dropped on your head as a kid? mom smoked/drank while pregnant?
Paying for the name??? How about build quality? My friends is 11yrs old with 100k miles and looks like new.....DC/Greddy look like **** after a couple years, if that......as do the ebay crap. My Vibrant was good for about 6-7yrs before rust consumed the flex pipe.
So you've personally Dyno'd a Mugen vs DC/Stock-----Lemme answer, NO you haven't.
don't bother posting if its BULLSHIT!!!
I guess an SMSP, HyTech, SSR is only a little better than stock too???
