Anyone have this header that was dyno'd in the Great Header Test?

$525 from R&D seems great for the power gains, but I cannot get one until February.

Search is pointless. Thanks.

 

new header

no testing done on it yet

you won't find any info on it until 2003

 

If it was dyno'ed at the great header test, wouldn't there be info?

 

I think there's a mix up between the regular one and the new power one.

 

Yeah. In the post above about headers, someone mentioned 'Gen. 1' T1R, so I am assuming the 2nd Gen. is coming?

Is the T1R on R&D and A&J's sites the Gen. 1? 2.5" coll? What Carsound cat fits with OEM R B-pipe?

EDIT: Here is the link to A&Js site... http://www.aj-racing.com/Products/T1R/main.html ... top header, not the Power header.

EDIT AGAIN: Link not working.... pic is here http://www.aj-racing.com/Products/T1.../DSCN8459t.jpg

How about any opinions on the new version of the T1R cat-back? Hoping to swap out my Comptech for this soon but looking for some honest input.

 

Thread jacker.

i think aaron is referring to the 1st gen T1R, the one R & D has for SALE.... anyone have info about this one?

 

We have just tested the New T1R exhaust (cat-back) on the RSX-S the car had Hondata, Injen Intake and this exhaust. Result was additional 10whp.

 

Just trying to help a friend get some info....

 

Here is the dyno for that car

 

1st gen = 2.5 collector, SMSP carsound 2.5 cat will bolt up to it and stock b pipe. Great power gains throughout the entire powerband. Quality is great. Utilizes the stock header bracket.

I suggest washing it down with rubbing alcohol before the install, installing with latex gloves on, and givingit a final rubdown with rubbing alcohol before starting the car to ensure it turns an even color. I did this and the end resuld was a perfectly bronzed header with no discoloration, looks pretty, feels prettier

 

Good idea. I need to do that to my jdm 4-1. Simple green, then some rubbing alcohol. My header is... well, fugly.

What is the difference between the 1st and 2nd gen T1R header, other than the 2nd gen is not available yet?

 

What happened to all that stuff about intakes alone making 20whp on rsx?

 

Forget this thread. Impossible to stay on topic.

Topic is: Type One Racing (T1R) 1st gen header, differences from 2nd gen.
Discuss.

Chris - who is interested like Aaron in this info and is tired of attempting to put the thread back on track.

 

Is it me or is that dyno graph fuct?

xjohnx, can you post some pics of your header off the car?

 

Didn't get a chance to take any, can't find my digicam, i can assure you it's by far one of the nicest i've ever seen in person (and i've seen the toda, spoon, smsp, etc) as far as build quality goes. Sure some may perform marginally better, but marginally is the key word, at 525, you can't beat it.

 

 

Heh, willard can vouch for this, b/c he installed it for me

willard 0wnz.

 

Before exhaust , it was making 182whp after exhaust was 192whp.

 

nice numbers but it's hella not smooth

 

How's the clearance on this one? I was looking into a used Spoon header but I've seen them on a few cars and clearance is still kinda pushin it. Not as bad as a JDM 4-1 but I don't want to ruin a 500-800 header on an unexpected hump in the road. If anyone knows I'd appreciate it.

I told him to replace his plugs but he never listen.
