Default How bad are dings in the header? Check out the pic.

So this guy has an ITR header (and cat) that he wants to trade straight up, for a PS2.

Me thinks its a good deal.

The only problem is.. These 2 dents..



So, how much do ya think this will hinder performance?
He's also throwin in an ITR cat.

If they are bad: just take a dremel, cut them out and then fix it. That's what I was going to do with a dc header I got for 50 bones but the collector flange didn't fit right.

If you got one without dents, they're would be some a week after you have em on your car.

I've got the same type of dents in my mugen header. The only way it will make a huge difference is if you're trying to make big NA numbers. For daily driving, I don't worry about it cus I'll probably dent it up even more.

I'm swapping in ITR cams/JSM ITR Pistons, AEBS Manifold in the beginning of the year... Hopin for 190+ to the wheels..

Dunno if you'd classify that huge NA #'s of not.

those arent too bad, id take them and if your really worried have a shop look at them and see if they can fix them. i would doubt you'd lose more than 5 percent of efficiency...
