Default Name that header!

Anyone know? 4-2-1. H22A. I would just assume eGay, but look at those perfect welds, even in my cell phone pic you can see dimes on dimes.

Any leads are appreciated.

You can see how it comes apart with the flanges on the collector. Thats means its a cheaper ebay header. A H22a performance header usually always have sleeves that slide into each runner. More or less its a stock exhaust, but you could do the 2" collector mod and make it better then it currently is.

Here is a pic of a PLM header, see how it comes apart with sleeves not flanges and gaskets. PLM and Vibrant are probably the two most common cheap"er" power gaining headers. $300-$400 bucks

Thanks for the suggestion, but this isn't exactly a budget build, it'd be better to put that toward a Myers.

Good info, I didn't realize ebays usually had the second flange. I will just do the 2" collector for now, I've been wanting to try my hand at it

there is likely a rather large difference in material quality and construction between a PLM and vibrant. given a vibrant is made by vibrant with vibrant materials. PLM is made overseas.
