okay i have searched this and came up w/ nothing, i have seen many discussions on the usdm header on gsrs, but none on b16s...

i have a crx w/ a jdm b16, and i can get my hands on the usdm thpe r header and cat..... i have heard that the b16 header is extreamly restrictive. now what i want to know is would it be a good upgrade or just a waste ??? ne power difference???

 

you need to search harder. My experience is that I feel there is power gains in a performance header over stock. I have the stock back on and it doesn't feel like it breathes as well up top.

 

yes the itr header will flow better than the b16 one but like ricodemus said, ure better off with an aftermarket

 

only reason im considering it is cuz im low on funds, and have it here lying around. also shoukd i go w/ 4-1 or 4-2-1 if i go aftermarket

 

4-1 for all out power in the high end of the powerband. However the ground clearance is not very good and you will need to notch the front crossmember or buy an aftermarket crossmember.

4-2-1 for good all around power and clearance between the ground and the crossmember.

Is the one you have a cast piece or is it like the JDM ITR one? If money isn't flowing in, I would try it out for the time being. When you have the money I'd shop for a used one in good condition, a DC header is not worth $300. Depending on your goals you should pick your parts. If your car is just a street car the 4-2-1 is probably a better option.
