Default ground clearance

im looking for the best header i can get. money really isnt a big issue because im searching for the best product i can get thats very reliable. i have heard the best headers by far are Toda, SMSP, and Hytech. if there are any other please let me know. my cousin had an R and had the toda header on it, things was very nice. we had heard the other 2 had problems with ground clearance, is this true?

Burns Stainless, SMSP, RMF, Hytech, Toda.

In that order.

I have Toda headers. I love them.

What are your intentions with the car? Stock, build, turbo, turbo+build?

i dont think its turbo build...any header that 4-1s pretty much is going to have clearance problems. but i have the JDMITRspec and its not really that bad.... unless its in a swapped car. different cars sit different heights

I had a Hytech exhaust mani that didn't have any ground clearance issues. This was also with the R lowered 1.5".

Only other problem was the length of the runners which made spacing limited for a Koyo radiator and a slim line fan.

I have a Toda header (there's only one) and my car is pretty damn low and it won't scratch. My driveway is has a decent bump to get into it and if I go at an angle it's all good
