Default headers for a B18C engine in a EK

hi there,
just wanting to know which headers should i use for smooth reving up to 8,400RPM. 4>2>1 or 4>1??? has everything changed to aftermarket parts from bottom to top. Not a sleeved engine but only using B16B cams at the moment. Thanks

your stock valvetrain won't really make power up that high, why do you want to rev that high?

Low to mid range. If you want up high power, 4-1.

a 4-1 header benefits top end slightly more than a 4-2-1 which is more midrange oriented. you might want to look into a 4-1, but it wont be too much more of a difference.
