Default header?

right now i have a stock b18c1 with intake and exaust, with no header i was looking into buying one soon but what should i go for? top-end, low-end or mid-range, and what kind of header gives you mid-range i, know 4to1 gives you top-end. Thanks for the info a head of time

I had a 4-1 and it was great in top end.

CAI, 2.25 exhaust, and 4-1 header, completely stock everything else: 151whp

What kind of driving do you do? auto x, road race, drag race, just street car? the higher flow the header is, the more top end you'll have, but at the expense of low end (4-1). IMO, get a 4-2-1 and mod the collector to a larger size to match your exhaust (if it doesn't already). Its not the best top end, but its a great mix of midrange and top end.

i use the car as an everyday driver but i also drag race here and there with buddies and i am a noobie to the whole impport scene and am just trying to learn what i would need for a car that is used as an everyday driver and drag race once in-a-while.
