lol ^^^ honeslty imo...a header is a header, its tubing cant change that TOO much between companies lol. all i can tell you is 4-1 header is good for highrpm, but bad for ground cleanrance. 4-2-1 is good for mid range rp. just get a pair that fits, spend about 100$ and heat wrap them, you'll be about as happy and you'll get

here is a little tip from me to you

if you get a polished header, make sure that is very clean before you run it the first time. Clean it off with a solvent... alcohol or brake cleaner or something. If you don't, any fingerprints or oily smears will burn into the finish.

Good advice but I have seen headers crack after a while from being heat wraped, The heat does stay away from everything else better but the header is not very good at retaining all that heat after a while. I have had both 4-2-1 and 4-1 and I like the 4-1 better since I hang out in Vtec quite a bit but the ground clearance really is an issue on the EFs ( I ran the 4-1 on my EG). I will try to get a 4-1 for my rex once I find one that clears the ground enough (I have not researched yet so I may be dissapointed when I do). My current 4-2-1 is nice to have though.

I dont know if people realize you are running OBD0 with the primary and secondary NON-heated O2 sensors that need to be placed near the head for proper operation.


If you are running a JDM Pr3 or PWO ecu with Pin # C8 and # C16 wired in correctly for those ECU's, you may want to check out HASPORT.

They have a header specifically for this application.

If it were me, I would have just ordered a OBD1 B16 swap with the short geared JDM XSI tranny or a hydro B16.


Obviously, if you choose that route, you will need to convert your CRX to run OBD1 electronics.

If you choose a Hydro B16 swap, you will need to get HASPORT's EFB2 Cable to Hydro B-series swap mount kit.

Your header and engine management options are far greater if you convert to OBD1.
