Heya guys.

We've all heard of overcamming and the like, now I'm wondering if there is any way that i can under-motor a header

I have somewhat of an unusual question, but please don't stop reading. In my car I have an sirII b16a (CAI, 2.25 exhaust, ecu)

NOW... the question I had mentioned. If I were to run an anr compact race header would my b16 really take full advantage of it. (keep in mind I won't be running a cat)

I will be getting a set of ctr cams, and adjustable cam gears for next year, but in the meantime, would i see better gains from the an-r than, lets say a dc 4-2-1?

you would not like the an-r header on a b16....i have the an-r header on a high compression 1.83 liter motor and lost a lot of low end over my dcsport 4-1....but from about 7k up it pulled like u wouldnt believe

 

really? I do appreciate that advice... The only reason i was loking at the 4-2-1 is for the better torque curve.

thanks man. Now I wanna hear what more people have to say.

get more combustion and it would be fine aka make more power and you should be fine.

that made no sense...

 

he means get soem head work done for u to equalize the diffence in the loss in low end bro


he was just trying to help u answer the question u asked&gt;????

i didnt ask any question...just stated my experiences with the an-r header....

 

what i meant was......the header would be fine on a b16 as long as he is making some nice power. thats all....i dont think the header would work at full potential unless the stock b16 was always at 5k+ rpms....like i said....make more power.....add a thinner head gasket...cams head work...add more compression and the header will be fine. thats what i meant, it easily makes sense.

 

the point i was making is he doesnt have enough displacement for the header.

 

the point is. you are wrong.

shut up.

 

LMAO then go ask the guy who designed the an-r header what size motor it was designed for...you shut up...lol
