Nice looking

When I put my old Hotshot header on, I noticed right away a power increase. Before with the stock H22A exhaust manifold, and with Nitto drag radials on, I could shift it hard into 2nd gear and it would spin slightly and then grab quickly and go. With the Hotshot header on, the drag radials would just spin all the way through 2nd gear where as before they would grab. Yeah, I know... lousy test but it was good enough for me .

nice set-up

Are the Hotshot headers, the one that you screw the clamp to hold it together?

Wow. Looks exactly the same in my car.

I already just about killed mine afew times. No ground clearance with a 3"+ drop.

Does yours sound kinda raspy? I made the mistake of putting the header together before I put it in So I had to pull it back apart, but its all good, and loud as hell driving straight header

Some more pics here from my old Hotshot header: http://www.JDMshit.com/hotshot-header

Not that great of pictures, but you get the idea of how low they go. The 2nd pic is messy looking... but I cleaned it up with a grinder and some flat black hi-temp paint . Runs great in VTEC (and very loud in a completely gutted hatchback... earplugs ARE a must) with the "Y" header dump opened at the track. It's funny how H-series motors aren't as loud as B-series motors with running open exhaust .

I can't tell which one has more ground clearance, yours or mine? Prolly about the same. My grass is about 3-3 1/2 inches high in that picture, and the header just barely rubs on the grass.
