previous owner bolt it on over a jdm 4-1 and went from 12.2 to 11.99... $500.

 

How old is that header? I've seen alot of SMSP headers in person, and the welds usually look a little cleaner? Is that a really old SMSP header? It looks pretty cool.

 

it's an historic piece dave's first side exit!

 

Actually it was my 3rd side exit. The welds aren't pretty, some were even mig welded , but it looks like they are holding up. GhettoRacer's price reflects no true merge collector and lack of 100% tig welding. I believe I made it with my pseudo merge where I formed the tubes into a point versus cutting them off flush (i.e jdm itr 4-1). It ain't pretty but if you go down the track faster, do you care what it looks like? I glad to say my current offerings also look very nice.

regarding this header - i know this is kind of a vague or hard to answer question - but realistically is this header suitable to use on a mildly built engine, ie - gsr block with itr pistons, itr head, jun type 2 cams? would this be worth it to put on a setup like that and still see some power gains

sorry for asking dave a question on your thread ghettoracer but hopefully his answer will help sell your header, thanks
