so i decided to order an OBX 4-1 header for my b16. it cant hurt to try it out. i remembered my old crx d16a6 had a HP header on her. and it lasted alot of beatings and winter. any reviews.
I know people said there cams and lsd are nice from them.. but im also considering the cams if not and i have $$ i'll get the Buddy Club Spec IV with HONDA OEM valve train. either way i getting OEM valvetrain.

OBX is garbage.
I have the B16 header, and I ******* HATE it.
The welds are clean, but that's as far as I'll go.
The ******* tubes aren't even flush with the ports on the flange. Fitment is awful. And because of the crappy flange it's noisy as hell.
Stay away from it.

That header is garbage. I'm serious don't waste your time. You won't have much of a front crossmember once it's installed and it hangs very low

true. My **** sounded like a wrx when i started it up. Didn't even leave my condo complex before hitting it. It took me about 30 sec of drive time to figure out that that header sucked.

well i almost ordered it and have the jdm skid plate already for one. which i'm going to weld in the case i hit roadkill or ****. I'll use it on the DC.
But the OBX piece on Ebay the collector if FUCKED. My HP Racing had the same problem on my old crx man you know i netted 7-9whp from the HP 4-2-1 that cost me 150$ new and a little hassle. What i did was port match the ****** with my dremel and smoothed it out and heat up collector area to align with exhaust system and i told myself i wouldn't cheap on this car so. JDM DC 4-1 for me i dont feel like dremeling AND heating it up to fit.
I will put the car on the dynojet. to see if this car produces good torque and hp. i wish i could get a chip to raise to 8700, agressive fuel map and no speed governor. anyone?? i'll search then.
B16a1
PR3 (8200rpm & 110mph limit)
3" short ram intake
DC JDM 4-1
2.5" testpipe
2.35" Thermal R&D mid pipe
Custom axle back exhuast
look at the collector
