Default Is it possible to ID these headers?

They are on my 01 DC2R and they are 2.5". Sorry but i tried to get the best pictures i can.

I have been told they are mugen titanium replicas (?), replica JDM ITR or Fujitsubu. The reason i ask is i wouldn't mind buying some RMF 4-1, but if these(whatever they are) are just as good, i will not bother.

Thanks

PS Last pic, that is NOT dent, just some dust

Mine seem to be different to those ones, they have a bracket thing just before the flange?

I dont agree with them being Ebay...the person i bought the car from has modified the car with quality parts (Tein, Fujitsubo, Spoon) and for them to wack on cheap headers does not make sense.

i may be wrong, but dont nearly all JDM headers have the "JASMA" stamp on one of the primaries right after the flange?

also, what size is the collector? remember, not too many "real" JDM headers have a 2.5" collector. usually 60mm IIRC

Looks to be a copy of the DC JDM header. The DC header had the #3 and #4 tubes lower in the front just like this one. The thing is when this header was copied over the years the idiots who copied it kept the same mistake so it's a dead give away.

Anything is an upgrade from the header posted. Best bet would be to upgrade to a header built for your setup. SMSP, HYTECH, SSR, ASP, NAH2B (username on here) are some of the big names in this industry.
