Default aiming to get 170whp.. what header?

Ok, my mods are; JDM b16a (second gen/xsi) CTR cams/ITR valvetrain, Mugen chipped ECU, Skunk2 gears, Tanabe RM catback, mild head port and port matched IM. Car is a slammed 91 DA... so I am looking for good ground clearance as well.

I am looking to get 170whp out of this setup, and was wondering what header would respond best? Looking to spend less than $1000. thanks

most people recommend the TODA header for applications such as yours. search around, even dave from SMS suggests that header.

i doubt 30 peak hp...but depending on your previous header the one u have now just mite be a overall better design maybe gaining a few ponies in midrange and topend.....I for one have a RMF header and couldnt believe the power it added....
