Hi, I need a 4-2-1 header with a 2.5" collector for my B18C, the problem is the engine is not in a Honda and I have very limited space between the header and the subframe/front panel, any suggestions for a header that hugs the block quite tightly around the $400 dollar price mark?

 

Is this for a Mini Cooper? More than likely the money for header would be a Skunk2 Alpha, but may be just over the $400 limit. Or.. may have to make your own.

 

Rover Metro, but the mini's use the Rover frame when installing vtec engine's, I have a crappy Japspeed header on there at the moment but it rubs and I want to increase the bore to 2.5".

 

I run an RSR stainless, 2-piece, 4-2-1 with a 2.5" collector and it hugs the engine as close as you probably can. If you can find one, it should be in your price range.

 

Cheers bud

 

The toda replica header currently has the best clearance of any shelf header that I know of. Far better than the Skunk Alpha. It hugs the block very close.



It can be had for $400

 

my rmf narrow copy was a pretty tight fit against the front and underside of the block. maybe will work?

post some pics and we can give you some more info.

 

Here's a few pics (not mine) the white car is a HT member though clearance at the top isn't too bad its how far the header sticks out near the bottom of the rad that's the important bit.
