+1 ...I only purchased the 4-1 stainless header, but the build quality/welds were very well done, and looks great. I'd say give it a shot. For the price you can't go wrong.

Power gains from a header on a simple bolt-on NA car are going to be minimal regardless of the brand. The main thing you should concern yourself with is fitment and durability. As long as it fits the engine well (doesn't hang low, too short, etc) and it's made from semi-quality material, you're going to be just fine.

just installed mine last night. they look cool, but i had to rig up so many things just to make it fit...

the 4-2 part wasnt any where near fitting good, the little 'mounting tab' got in the way of my oil pan, and had to be chopped up, plus on top of that, you still have to mod your exhause because its a bit longer than your average/stock header.

they say type r has the same results as the rep, but its more expensive. but in return you get more dependability, and fitment.
