Default Best Bang for The Buck Header for GSR?

I'm looking to get a header for my 97 GSR. What's the best header that can produce good power. I'm not lookin to spend over 400 bucks for the header. So yea, something cheap and good.

You can get a Comptech 4-2-1 header for 400 bucks. It fared pretty well against some "exotic" pieces in the great header test.

i got a brand new stainless steel obx header complete with gaskets and a lifetime warranty for $175 shipped. for the minimal gains from a header, dont fork over a lot of dough.

thats only cuz the header has a 2.5' collector. you would also need to do that for any jdm header. even the dc replica. so it is the best bag for the buck cuz u make more power

Pick up a highflow cat that has a 2.5" diameter to match up to the collector.

a turbo might muffle that sound since the exhaust gas flows a longer path .
