I enjoy my RMF very much so.

I'm not really a fan of the Rage... Being a rip-off of the HyTech Production header and all.

The Rage may be a copy, but the quality is top notch. I just bought the Rage big tube and a Hytech TL exhaust. I'll be posting a dyno comparison between my old setup (AN-R with 3" collector and Thermal 3" exhaust) and the new one in about a month.

Oh, I'm sure it performs great.

Brad, when are you going to do a tour of the East Coast and come give me a ride in the R?

How about this profab?

I feel like headers are hit or miss, just like cams.

One might make awesome power for someone, but no power for someone else.

I believe the patent issue was in regard the the anti-reversion chambers. The Hytech production header and the Rage header do not incorporate this design feature.

I would like to know how this header performs as well. Seems like a cheap alternative to the big names.

Every header will perform differently on a different engine.

Here's a link to the header test performed a while back: https://honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=1538831

Decide for yourself.

Mine hasn't cracked or rusted yet.

I've had it only for like 2 months now though.

Randy has a warranty against cracking as long as you run a flex-pipe after the header.

$721 shipped.

Randy was backed up and had a hand injury, so 13 weeks.
