Default JVT Racing Header?

What do you guys think about jvt racing header? Any dyno on the header?
I was thinking about trying the JVT Racing GSR 4-1 header.

Looks like its the same design as any other low end header manufacturer...dc sports, edelbrock, megan.etc. I would go with a edelbrock personally, from what i hear welds actually hold up compared to megan...and it has the biggest primarys of the 3. But if you are going to most power, you cant beat smsp, rmf, dtr etc. but they will cost a lot more too.

JVT Header looks awesome. I would recommend it for those who's on a budget.

That's for damn sure, just looking at the pictures of them you can see rust on the welds. At least they could of coated that **** or polished it before taking a pic and trying to sell it.

Wow! You guys are diss a lot of shops that carry JVT header and selling them on Honda Tech. I think JVT headers are pretty nice. Over all everyone got their own views on it. It’s no biggie with me.

its a $100 header...same as OBX, Megan, Spoom, Moogen and any other knockoff....cheap crap is popular and easy to sell because most people do not have a clue what they are really buying they just like the raced out look, and a chromey/nickel plated header fits that pretty well.

Theres nothing wrong with buying a cheap priced item if you can't afford the top end products. Just don't expect optimum gains and don't go knocking a brand when it doesn't have perfect a fit. Usually cheap priced items come at a cost, usually its poor fitment issues or poorly made product with poor quality material that will break under conditions that a higher priced item would stand up to.

DC Sports and Edelbrock are low end? U serious? I've been to both manufacturing facilities and have seen the engineering dept, fab and design shop and the actual place where they make the parts. they are far from low end. They may not be as "high end" as SMSP or similar, but they are not low end.

If you've already made up your mind, then why did you make this thread?
