Anyone using the bottom exit header?

 

I'm not sure how good that header is, as it's quite convoluted. There are quite a few tight radius turns...would like to hear what the header manufacturers think about this design.

personally I don't like it, looks like it's rather restrictive.

Austin

 

that design looks mighty familiar.

 

Jesus, it looks like a bunch of headers started inbreeding. I dont see how that can beat a long primary header.

 

doesn't he use an SMSP header?

 

haha u goof ball. thas some funny shte

 

"Primary pipes merge before the oil pan to increase clearance"

I don't think it's "tuned" ... just piping that replaces the stock one.

 

are those the same header built by randy @ elite motorsports?....the same person who built bisi's car?

 

Damn, that was hella funny, I almost fell out of my chair.

I hate when I LOL at work... I get strange looks and then have to close the window...

 

yes, randy makes these headers and he makes Erics new header.

they are offered in alot more configurations that what Eric has listed on his website...

 

anyone have contact info for Randy @ Elite?? I tried looking for a website but no luck. Also would have called 411 but dont know what city he is in. TIA

 

Hope you don't like AC or power steering

I think all the headers on the an-r page are Randy's

Snail was doing a group buy on these

 

Damn, hope you like running with out a radiator fan, or a radiator for that matter

 

Wow, forget the front end. LOL

 

 

I offered my car up to test one of these headers out against my HyTech, but the person selling the header told me that there is currently a fitment issue with the stock fans and AC.

Ausitn

 

Can't imagine why

 

LOL

 

I may be wrong, but I dont think theres any reason for a 4cylinder to have its header bend like V8 headers do. Looks like a gimmick to me.

Unless its made to be run open header I guess...

Can anyone say true equal length, tuned header? Ever seen an F1 header? Just a thought.

 

But the only reason to have different lengths is with dual exhaust cars that have 2 cylinders fireing in sequence on the same side of the engine. In which case, one of the cylinders should have a longer tube so all the gas from both cylinders doesn't hit the main exhaust pipe at the same time. But with a 4 cylinder with 1 exhaust, I dont see the point...

I think that 1st header was designed to be run on a 88-91 civic/crx while still being able to keep the stock crossmember.

 

umm.. holy ****. i hope those come with headlights because you can forget about using your front end

 

Randy has made quite a few headers for people i know. He definately has some skills when it comes to welding. As for the power it makes, don't knock it until you see the dyno. BTW all his headers are designed to be run open header unless you ask specifically to have it designed for an exhaust.

As for clearances, all of them are designed on the car, so clearance will not be an issue between radiator/fan. Remember most of the headers are race headers, not meant to be street driven. Also its Randy's header, not Ericks racing header. He moves from shop to shop so i wouldn't count on it being referred to as Erick's racing header for long.
