looks to me like it was one of Enzo's headers which would make it a headertech header.

s

 

the description says burns style merge collector. that does not look like a merge collector at all. it looks like a stamped collector.

 

Certainly isnt one of ours dont even know that it gets style points

 

There was recently a thread posted under the classifieds section, if I was smart enough I'd give the link, but it's an EXACT duplicate of the true jdm type r header....only it's painted black. I can't remember who builds it, but they get a for copying honda to make a header. HATE HATE HATE HATE HATE on imitations

 

It says upland thats where I am from.Lived there 44yrs .And there is only two people it could be And both of them are Whitfields .Steve Brown must of made
it for Chris Whitfield.From Hook-Ups for that dyno contest(B-series)The wording
doesn't sound like Jason But it really sounds like Chris

the type r does not step from 1.5 to 1.75 to a 3 in merge... when my boy gets it in ill take some better pics. so we can figure it out. but def not a knockoff of any jdm header ive ever seen...... link this around or pass it around. help me out. i may want to buy it off him if i can figure out if it is a quality piece. looks good in the pics and the descrip anyway. i was thinking one of enzos early headertech mild steel pieces but i have not seen any pics, the description of both read similer though. hollar all you know it alls. hehe im kidding.

i've never seen a JDM 4-1 stepped three times with a 3 inch 3 bolt collector. A 4-1 design is nothing new, honda certainly didn't invent it.

keep in mind that's just where the guy is that's selling it. Doens't mean it was made there. Could be a customer all the way across the country that bought it and is now selling it.

just my .02.

i still say headertech

s

 

if it is. that would be dope. def looks like a merge collector to me. not some cheap DC ish... well cant wait till jon gets it. . did headertech mark thier headers???? def not smsp. flanges are diff. any one have pics of a headertech mild steel??

 

That's Definitely not one of my headers. Weld's look terrible! Also my steps are in different locations. Overall it looks pretty bad but hey he got it cheap enough to where if it doesn't work he's not losing much.

And Yes that is not a merge collector. It's a formed collector.


I make everything in stainless now with real merge collectors.

 

look at the inside of the last picture, that is not a merge collector.

 

I agree! Not sure if you thought i didn't?

 

enzo, i was pointing this out to oerski not you.
i would hope you would know what a merge collector looks like if youre building headers.

 

WILLING TO SELL IT

 

hes willing to sell it if anyone is interested. hasnt been used since the auction close. including 3" to 2.25" collector reducer (should be cut to 2.5 for best results) head flange ports have been bored open and polished. yeah it has shitty welds, but 150 shipped is a hell of a deal for a custom race header with a 3inch collector.

 

That collector is a Hooker semi merge sorta stamped kinda weld on deal that they sell Its just a point in the middle of the 4 tubes instead of a star.(header guys know what a star is ,Right header guys?)

 

rmf did you really stop making custom headers... ive heard great things and with my icome tax im def in the market for a great header. just dont want to spend great ammounts.. lol

 

HELL NO Who told you that? I'm working out of Import Power House in PHX Ariz.Here is the site Give me a callhttp://www.importpowerhouse.com/index.html
