Noob question on authenticity of Hytech headers....help me out HT!




Uploaded with ImageShack.us

 

they look fake. they dont have anti reversion chambers?

 

take closer pictures, cant tell just by that. or google the real hytech headers and ebay ones

 

Real hytech...possible the small tube "Real" hytech.. the big tube 2.0 liter headers have the anti-reversal chambers.

 

doesnt hytech stamp the flange with their name?

i took som ecloseups of my hytech replica here compare them to yours.

id say its real, in the middle its still got a huge chunk and thats also where its usually stamped hytech.

not saying the replicas didn't do the same thing.( i haven't messed with hytechs at all)
but just from googling it seems that is real. take pics of that hunk of metal between the runners it should have the company stamp there.

 

thanks for all the input guys.....I'm tryin to get more pics.


so does ONLY the big tube headers have the anti-reversal chambers?

 

I hope you're wrong about this,,, I purchased TWO big tube 2.0L headers from John at hytech and he said they were the new ones. They do not have anti reversion chambers, pay'd 900 plus for each one!! Have the order form in the file!

 

Niether of my "real" hytech big tubes have a hytech stamp on them, and I ordered these directly from John at hytech.

 

you obviously got shammed then.



This is johns 2.0liter big tube...he may have something new he's working on but.. this is the real deal..

 

 

The above is my header, i sold my hytech to IPG.

 

again the real hytechs have anti reversion chambers. the one picture does not.

 

my hytech has machined flange just like the pics. it doesn't seem yours is. also the flange is phuckin tight to the studs when you put it on. He does this so that the header lines up with the exhaust ports perfectly. Also, I've never seen him put the O2 flange on only a paired section of the header, always in the collector. I'd say that is not real.

 

They look the same as my tri-y egay headers. Theyre not the real ones.

 

whats funny is they have reversion chambers in the first place....this was used on old tanks for low rpm motors more then half a century ago....has no place on high rpm high flow motors.
also the new hytech headers dont have the anti reversion chambers...but this is for boosted applications with a supercharger.

 

ha ha! seriously. wtf.

 

enlightenment....its a bitch

 

enlightenment, shiiiiiiiiiiitttt. you act like you discovered the world is round. unfortunately, not so.

 

lol...your funny

 

...what..

 

that header you posted is not a anti-reversion header, nor a hytech header. It is a shitty attempt at a 2 step and it is paired wrong for a 4-1 anyways. let alone short *** primaries.

 

Mine has stepped primaries not anti-reversion chambers. Either way I have an order form from hytech with his sig. Plus the car hauls ***.

 

Looks real

 

Ill post up pics of my tri-y in a few minutes once i snap a few pics. Its a knock off. If it was real then i wouldnt trade a ls crank and rods for it lol. BRB with pics.

Heres some pics. I have no idea how to make them smaller.



No hytech logo


shitie welds are shitie...gonna reveld it once i weld on the wideband o2 sensor bung.
Hope this helped
