Holy cow I woulda never expected this much of a difference, this header is awesome! Header seems to make a very noticable difference from about 5k up and it actually made the J's a little more quiet Thanks to VPR Motorsports for the good deal on the header and SMS Carsound and thanks to Ferrell for holding hands with me ummmm I mean helping put the new header on

Couple pics of the new header (notice my new J's/strut bar non-rubbing mod)





Again this header roxors, a really great buy!

And a pic of the freshly washed ITR

White rims?? mmmm... Gunmetal looks so much better.

 

Must be a nice combo

 

Haha how could you tell? I must say, Jordo's non-rubbing mod is much nicer than mine

Thanks for the compliments guys

 

Hmmm my gunmetals have snow tires and my cw's have Azenis, easy decision Hehe actually right now I like the cw better, kinda sets the car off.

 

That Engine Bay is "straight BLINGIN' Yo ~!" hahaha

I wish i could keep my engine bay that clean. I have the JDm front and with the opening where the grill is, on a rainy or moist day, the air that enters through there makes the engine bay look horrible. I try to keep my engine bay that clean but its not possible. Glad you like the header!

 

Hehe thank you sir but I must admit I did a little engine bay cleaning before I took that pic

 

Nice Header, I have one myself!

Eric

 

looks good...

Does VPR Motorsports have a site?? I tried looking for the website.

 

what did you use to clean it? I assume a toothbrush and something else? hahaha
I use Simple Green but im afraid its gonna eat up the plastic or rubber underneath the hood plus im not sure how it effects the valve cover.

 

I guess the site http://www.vprmotorsports will be coming soon. The guys name is Victor Perri and you can email him at SIRacer@aol.com, great to deal w/ and good prices too!

I just cleaned the engine bay w/ a soapy rag

 

i like the white jdm rims.....

My non rubbing mod is a black drink huggy ;P - it looks kinda ghetto but gets the job done nicely..

im soo happy, this weekend i get to put my spoon header one and smsp testpipe.. (which both might be up forsale soon, might be buying turbo kit)

but chris, you got me pumped now to put the header on

 

How much of a performance gain do you get with that header? I mean I have been looking to buy that exact header and I have heard from people that there is not that much of an increase from stock I did not want to spend all that money and time on something that gave me like 3hp.

 

Jordo you better get us some pics tomorrow and go spray your old exhaust bolts w/ some penetrating oil unless you have a big strong man like Ferrell around to break your bolts

 

Well butt-dyno says around 7-12 hp from 5k up, that's just a guess but it definitely made a big difference. For the price I wouldn't hesitate to buy it again.

 

They look EDM to me, but it could just be the picture...

 

i concur

Chris, how much for the header shipped?

 

lookin good

 

ill defineally have pictures... when i put the spoon header and smsp header on... alot has changed in my engine bay since that picture ;P

yeah breaking the bolts sucks..

 

Chris, looks good! Glad it worked out for you. See you at EXPO! My site is under the works now. www.vprmotorsports.com coming soon...

Thanks,
Victor

 

Sounds good. I need to get a header. I think it may be my next mod. The JDM DC 4-1 makes more power than OEM JDM 4-1 right? How's the ground clearance?
