Default Got my LoveFab header in the mail *PICS

Welp I want to apologize for me creating that ghey thread about the wheels last night. If I had known that there was still an open post that was unlocked I would have put it all there. I didnt purposely make a new thread to annoy people, I jsut wanted my opinions stated. I didn't realize that til later that night that the second one was still open.


But anywhoo.....onto a different subject. This header came from LOVEFAB. I was going to go Hytech,DTR, OR SMSP. But I figured I'd give this a try. I paid a whopping 412 dollars shipped for this and it comes used off of LoveFab's car.

It is a 4-2-1 design and it is HUGE. It is a bit long for my setup so I'm going to have to modify it to fit. After I get it to fit I will dyno this and my old setup back to back with tuning at DSR on their Dynojet to see the improvements.

But for now here are some pics of it. I just spent three hours polishing it and sanding it with 220 grit.

It is a beaut and I think it will perform better than my T1R header by far. I hope it clears my tranny brace


















AND a bonus picture of my horse!



I hope you all enjoy. I know I will!

That's a beauty

Are you running a catalytic converter? What's your setup?

Yah for to and from the track I will be using a cat. For the track I will use my testpipe. I will have two different chips to use on my Hondata to switch between the two.

Motor Setup:

Internally stock B18C5 block and head
-Mugen intake
-LoveFab header
-T1R 1st gen exhaust
-270cc Prelude injectors
-Hondata

Tranny Setup:

-ATS 4.9
-ACT Heavy Duty Pressure Plate/ Street Disk
-Fidanza Fly


I have gone trough many different setups, but I decided that I would follow my good buddy Austin. A very simple and high quality selection of parts. Not a bunch of stuff I don't need, and not budget parts. I find that cheaping out here and there will just cost you more money in the end.

For some reason my mom likes useless antiques. I guess each member of the family likes to spend money on something.

The header says Love, but I don't see any picture of you embracing it.

Lovefab headers are hot as crap. Cody does grade A work. Honestly the only header that I think is hotter than Lovefab is Hytech. But for the price, id go lovefab any day.
