no i havent had the head flowed
and im currently running a dc sports header for a b16a2 (99-00 si) and i think its undersized for my build so im currently on the search for a new header. im running this in a 92 civic cx w/ AC so im a little worried about both good performance and fitment issues.

im confused because i have had a couple people tell me i need a big tube header and a few people tell me i dont. i think i would but im not that experianced so i dont know. i did build my own motor. im wondering what header H-T would recomend and why. and i would like to know if you have a similar build.


** yes i plan on keeing ac its a daily driver and i live in hot fla...lol
and honestly my situation is im a broke ****. i was trying to sell another lsv motor i have in parts for around $700 but i didnt have any luck so im going to sell my head for $300 and get it put on the dyno like it is to see what im doing with this header.
i know baller headers like hytech & bizzy's are like $1000-1200 but honestly i dont see myself being able to get one. i would prob say $500-700 is my budget. i have seen the replica hytechs on here for less than that and i was thinking of that, i guess one of the venders is kteller. but im a little confused because i talked to someone who has one of those replicas and he said i wouldnt need a "big tube" header for my build. i think i would.

Are you planning to keep A/C and what's your budget.

Let us know and we can pick a header for you a lot better

i edited post to answer

 

What are skunk2 prototype cams?

Anyway, a standard size header is what I would recommend.

 

TODA replica?

 

I agree with the other posts, also maybe see if you can find a used high end for A/C.

I honestly forget after a sleepless night if a knock off will clear AC

agree with them as far as?? that the toda rep or?

 

i honestly thought i would get more of a response than this

 

Hytech Replicas. Why? Cause i think you would get the most power out of it if that's what your looking for.
