WOW. That is a mean looking header. I've never seen it and I guess there is a reason behind it?

yes it works, the question is: is the design efficient for the money?

the design goes hand in hand with your goals...are they NA, FI?

NA......

I'm not sure which cams I’m gonna use. I want Toda B. Everybody would say I must use the Toda header, but when you look at all the Toda B dyno's the low-end torque is not very smooth. With this header I want it to be a lot better.

no cams are going to increase your displacement! But spec b's and spec c's definitely give you more midrange as well as peak.

As for low end grunt, it sounds like you want a higher final drive. I'd recommend 4.9. AND spec C's! AND toda header!

i think he is talking about APC
All he does is post ignorant crap and ask people to post pics of things.

If you want to do that, do it somewhere else.

Thats what I was talking about.
I was saying that just because a Japanese company makes it and the guy was wondering about it, doesn't make it "JDM hype."
Quit your nonsense boy.

I said that because I haven't PERSONALLY seen an Amercian header that can outpower a Japanese header.


I never said I had an RX-7.

That's a picture of headers, not a dynograph.

Here you go. The high graphs are with hytech (usdm) with my name: KEN.

The lower graphs are with jdm 4-1 header.....

shouldnt "all" aftermarket headers make more power than a stock one? Isnt that one of the main reasons to buy an aftermarket header?

An aftermarket JDM header can make more than a stock one.
Even more value-added content!

hytech header would cost more then most if not all the jdm headers
