whats better a 4-2-1 header or 4-1 for a type-r

 

Depends on what you want.

4-2-1 = better midrange, good for track/auto-x
4-1 = better top end, good for drag

 

Although those descriptions were correct a few years back. Newer custom designs of hybrid and high-end headers can benfit both the midrange and high end with minimal loss.

To truely unleash the potential power of the ITR motor, you Need a well designed header with at least a 60mm or a 2 1/2" collector. Next would be a High flow cat and then a 2 1/2" catback without any restrictions and a free flowing exhaust cannister.

Some noteable names:

Spoon
Toda
JDM
SMSP
Hytech
Type-1

Do your homework and your car will reward you with favorable results. AND of course, You get what you pay for...

Good luck,

Have you heard about R-Speed yet? It is a Club of Type R's that are from the Tri-state area. We meet at events like Auto-X's and track events. Do dinners, cruises and discuss mods. Lemme know if you are interested.

Will headers with a 2.5" collector bolt up to the stock cat with the addition of one of the flanges I've seen for sale? (like this for example: http://inlinefour.com/25incolflan.html)
