Ok. don't flame i did a seach and get error when i did a search.
I'm in search of headers for my 96 civic ex.
I understand that 4 to 1 headers give you high RPM power.
and 4 2 1 give you low end power.
and which one you get all matters on what you want to do with your car in the long run.

I race like once in 3 weeks or something.
The most mods i'll perform on the car is I/H/E. thats it.
So my question to you guys is which would be better 4 to 1 headers or 4 2 1.

4-2-1 for your daily driver.....good low, and mid range increases.

 

421

 

 

You seem to know what the difference is so go with what you want. IMO 4-2-1 is nicer for a daily drivability and since you only race once and a while go with the header that gives you more low end power.

For honda 4 cylinder engines you can only put one header on it so don't refer to it as "headers" any more.

 

4-2-1 are also better for driving. With 4-1, all the pipes come together further down. This means that they scrape easier, which is no fun when you have a dented header that you payed a few bucks for
