Thanks thanks, but ive heard some headers dont even go as low as the oil pan!

 

those look like stock placement to me. keep it stock and you dont have to worry. go with JDM ITR header, with those skid plates in place no worries about bending the down pipe. unless you really suck at driving.

 

Ohh not ive been driving slammed for a few months now i got it down

 

A real JDM ITR header will not fit with a factory cross-member.

 

and the ones you posted will? from what i see they have the same 4-1 design as a jdm itr. either way he would still have to notch the cross member

 

the first one i posted will fit without modifying anything, neither has a 4-1 design

 

lol, worst advice ever... also did you even look at the links posted? the JDM ITR header is one of the lowest hanging headers, although pretty much any 4-1 will be low...

Those two 4-2-1s were as good as I could find when I was looking for a good performing header with good ground clearance. I went with the the T*DA header. I don't know about the Highend header but the T*DA header will fit without cross member modification.

 

ground clearance? 4-2-1 header will do the job. my 4-1 got chewed up from being lowered w/ a Bseries. hytech/profab (pulling names out) header do not fit with the stock cross member as they stick more outward towards the t bar.. they are 4-2-1. Just fyi.

i had a b20vtec and that **** is fast enough. i used a stock header to disguise as a stock motor but your not in cali..

 

In my EF I had a jg edelbrock 4-2-1 and had excellent ground clearance. with the JDM 4-1 the header was the lowest point on the car and scaped it a few times. Oh and if you go with the jg modify the collector to 2.5".

 

hahaa yeah im going spec II

 

how do you like that header? any pictures from underneath your car?

 

I can take pics of it next to my HyTech replica and beat to hell DC Sports 4-1 B16A header but my CRX is COMPLETELY stripped and in the body shop for a full restoration right now so no on car pics for a while.

 

The RMF Narrow tube replica has pretty good clearance

 

imo the best header choice is to not lower your car at all...

 

u simply cut a box shapped notch in the crossmember like u would have to do with any ef with a bseries and 4to1 header, and if your slammed to my specs, i feel sorry for u if ur going to waste ur money on a type-r header if its the real jdm piece cause they hang pretty damn low. ur best bet if your slammed is to use a 4-2-1 design. speaking from a guy with a b20 crx thats been dumped on a 4 inch drop.. and im planning on going lower in the summer for th eibach meet.lol
