Well here is Weapon R's new stainless steel race header. This thing is beautiful. I was never really up on Weapon R, but they have really come around. They are coming out with an intake manifold and throttle body, all for B-series motors. This header is the very first one they have produced for testing.

Right now I have the DC JDM 4-1 header, and I am going to dyno before and after the new race header for results. I will post the results as soon as possible.

Here are some pics, more to come.

Me either but that header sure looks like a nice piece.

Can't wait to hear/see results.

 

Looks similar to the hytech tri Y B series header... How much is Weapon R asking for the race headers? If they are around the price of a DC header they might sell some but if they are trying to compete with the big boys... SMSP and such, they are waisting their time...

 

No thanks.

Remember, some people can afford Rotas over Mugen rims.

 

Well, here's the deal. I am taking the car down to the dyno to get tuned to the best of the car's ability. Then I will take off the header and put this one on without changing anything and see what happens. Good or bad, I will post up the #'s.

I will also post up some closer pics of the welds and quality tomorrow.

 

yeah let us know how it goes and get some closer pictures.....

im one to always make fun of weapon R and other brands like it bc of the "ricy" non perfomance aspect but that header doesnt look to bad to be totally honest. i wait till i see some numbers before i nock on it

 

If it makes good power, it makes good power. No need for anyone to start the "hating".

Hurry and post those dyno charts.

 

So how much will this thing be?

 

I'm not one to post stuff without some evidence but Vibrant, a company based in Canada, has version that is somewhat similiar to the Toda header.

I had a close customer of mine brought pics of this header at some shows and look very nice. I will get a part number from Vibrant tommorrow,

True, if it makes power and its all good.

Sometimes at the track, you'll always encounter a budget racer(s) being faster than the big sponsership race car.

But...........sometimes owning a name brand-x gives you the wiggles, lol.

Sort like owning silk Tommy Hilfger boxers than the Walmart brand itchy boxers. It serve a purpose but one will give you the itch rather the other gives you teh warmth smoothness.

Just my $.02 cents of the nite, gooodddd............. $5 pitchers are kicking my a$$ right now, lol.

 

Its not a bolt on. Correct? It looks a bit long. Like you'd have to move the cat converter back some without that extra pipe he has his hand on.

 

Any word on where and when this item will be available for the public?

 

nice looking header, how much did you spend? keep us updated on the dyno testing

 

difinitly looks like a hy-tech, but the desing looks like it will hang pretty low.

 

keep us posted

 

was your car in a booth at nopi???
if so its nice car bro....post up some ###

 

ready and waiting for the numbers.....

 

if it makes more power on this motor id deffinatly buy one, whats ur motor setup like?

 

Vibrant part# 2539,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,not trying to hijack your thread,

doesnt look too bad? that looks like an exact copy of the hytech header. last i knew hytech made some nice nice stuff. any more info on the material its made from, welds, ect? also price? lets see some dynos (email me for hosting if you need it)

 

OK, we took pics last night up close of the welds, flanges and overall, but didn't get them up loaded. I will take more tonight of the install and go from there.

As for the motor setup, currently the car has:
95 GSR motor swap
Skunk2 i/m
Skunk2 ecu
Skunk2 valves (flat high compression)
Skunk2 ti retainers
Skunk2 valves springs
Skunk2 Stage 3 cams
Skunk2 cam sprockets

Yes it was.

As for the cost, I don't know yet. This one was free since my car is sponsored by Weapon R. This is also the first one they have ever produced, so we'll see.

I think the days of the butterfly knife key is gone for them.

 

im assuming it came with the test pipe? also what size collector is it? 2.5"? how bout the length? type r length stock or is it longer
