Default Production Tr-Y header?

I'm after a Tri-y header for my H22 but simply cant afford a custom piece so looking for a production Tri-y. Found loads for B series but cant find anything for H series.

Unless I'm missing something, isn't a tri-Y design, just a 4-2-1? Aren't all production headers for the H22 of this design, except the Kamakazi (or however it's spelled)?

My bad i've obviously got my terminology completely wrong. What i mean by a tri-y is something similar to an SMSP or Hytech, long primaries that stretch under the sump etc.

Theres loads of knock offs for the b-series but cant find anything for the H.

I've already got a DC which i bought for my build last year, doing my usual and jumoing into things without doing any research so i'm now on the hunt for something that is actually going to help.

I'm keeping an eye on the Vibrant thread but would like to see what power it makes first.

That's what I originally posted, but then deleted.

There are no knock off companies like that with the exception of mid-price range headers like the Camp1320 and An-r units.

I'll look into An-r but have heard way to many bad things about the 1320 header. I've got a couple of months before my build is gonna be ready so i'll hold out for the vibrant and see how well it does.

SMSP or Hytech H22 headers do not have primaries that go under the oil pan like B-series designs. They still have designs that are roughly similar to a good production JASMAnian header.


The only H22 headers that fill that definition of "tri-y" aka B-series SMS or Hytech (+ replicas) are ones that don't really fit the Prelude. There just isn't room to pass that many pipes by the crossmember and motor mount.

Ah i probably should have mentioned earlier that I have a civic with a H22 swap so chassis fitment doesnt matter. I'm wondering weather to just whack the DC on until i can afford a Hytech or SMSP but that could be a while and will cost extra in dyno time
