Sorry for the newbness-Ive been lookin for headers and found some i liked until it was brought to my attention most 4-1 headers wont clear the front crossmember on a ef. What kind of header options do i have open to clear the front crossmember with a b16a?

 

HaSport makes one, or you might be able to get a Z10 crossmember and clear up some space

 

I was told stocked b16a headers are better then aftermarket

 

The Full race bars will allow you to clear 4-1's. Josh (deftones0817) just got his and there is tons of room in there now

why not custom the stock x-member like me

 

will these help enough to also run a fat *** 4-1 header and A/C?

 

I like stock or the hasport header.

 

according to their website you will have no issue with the an-r headers and clearance...

http://www.an-r.com

but of course with quality and beauty comes a hefty price tag

 

I had 4-1 DC before and that was a mistake, took me forever to install it. Get the CM welded after a little modification and install it back. It only took me 15 mins to crush the bottom 2 pipes.

With most EF the clearance is so minimal that its not a good idea for it will mess up the bottom two pipes.

Stick with the traditional 4-2-1 and you'll be safer.

IMO

The AN-R header is pretty awesome but if you have A/C then that is out of the question. Seen that sucker in person and it's a work of art, don't seem to have any clearance issues w/o the A/C.

 

IS that safe to cut the cross member like that?

you might possibly get some vibrations and steering issues if you cut one

what? that's how you do it

 

for everyone

 

i will take that

 

I'm running an old RSR and clears with no prob's......even with A/C.
JHPUSA is selling a used one......see here...http://www.jhpusa.com/catalog/...d=108
also comes with 2 O2 bungs allready inplace.

 

Well outta all the options bangin the **** outta one sounds the cheapest and most fun.

i'd go for that and the two piece install makes it a snap, well you still probably need to take off the x member to install, just no hacking/banging

super easy install...no need to remove the crossmember

 

Get an aftermarket crossmember or traction bar system whatever they call them. I have a custom one and theres tons of room compared to a stock crossmember car.

Im sure it will help your 60's at the track too
