Default cheap headers, recomend me one please!

I want to replace the stock headers with aftermarket headers, i don't have alot of money to spend and i know to expect a minimal difference, but which headers should i get for <$350 (brands i've seen: HPS, J Spec, OBX, JVT, Megan, and DC Sports) check ebay for these brands.

thanks!

Berk's is a very good header for the price. It probably won't stay that low for very long. Rick's also makes a good header for only like $500. Please don't buy DC Sports or Megan. They perform worse than stock.

jesus christ, you seem to have an obsession with throwing money at your car, while making it shittier at the same time

what some people consider an upgrade, i will never quite understand

For the money I think its worth it. My buddy was happy as **** with the header he kept telling me to get it when I was the one that recomended it to him lol.

The berk header is very similar to the J's Racing header. It has 50mm primaries that go into 55mm secondaries and then into a 65mm collector. J's made something like 20whp with that and a 70mm exhaust. so, for 400 bux vs. 1200 you can't go wrong.

Cheapest is Megan which makes a little bit of mid range but I do mean a little.

If J's is so good Megan should just copy their design.

best kept secret- put an ap2 header on ur ap1. this will get flamed but that's fine i've seen the results on the dyno and felt the increase of power on my ap1.

^^^ Not really a secret. I would much rather have the AP2 header than the Megan and DC.

You dont really come buy AP2 headers for sale unless you post a WTB.

Im just saving up and trying to find a good used header like spoon mugen or j's.
