What is wrong with a 2.5 inch collector? Just get a new cat

The comptech header is a decent header that will bolt onto the stock cat.

 

comptech prolly makes the best header that is carb/2.25" collector

 

Any other choices.. ( I'm lacking money right now..

it looks like comptech is outta my price range.. (under 300)

 

You arent going to find any decent headers under 300 dollars. Save up and wait to buy a 2.5" header and 2.5" cat, it will be well worth the wait.

 

I thought the JDM ITR header had a 2.25 inch collector...

Nope, 2.5"

 

All the usdm headers that bolt up to the stock cat have 2" collectors. I don't think there is an off the shelf 2.25" collector header for the B series.

 

I believe the Greddy header is 2.25".

 

Apexi might also have a usdm spec header.

 

I have a used Comptech 4-2-1 for Integra applications sitting in my garage. Send me an IM if you're interested

 

I would go with a greddy 4-2-1 header.
On my old 98 gsr I made 163 whp with just i/h/e and cam gears.
Aem intake, Greddy header/exhuast.

I thought stock was 2.25''?

 

I think yer gonna kick yourself in the *** if you get a 2 or 2.25" header. If you plan to do anything else to the car in the future youll be wasting your money. Save your money and get something 2.5" and get a new cat.

Is this for an R or for a GSR as your sig lists?

Well you know what kind of headers their are and how much they cost...I dunno what you want us to tell you...get one off ebay if you want it cheap.

 

Since you're in a hurry, and don't have any money, my advice is to just get a stock header for next to nothing. This will get you back on the road and you won't have wasted several hundred dollars on something else of questionable quality.

If you want to get something more performance oriented in the future you'll have time to save up and get something decent.

So the header is 2'' and the rest of the exhaust is 2.25''? That doesnt make too much sense does it? I wonder why honda did that.

 

2.25 just isnt worth it imo, save the time and money so you dont have to do it all over again get a JDM 4-1 used in the classified sections.

But if you really want a 2.25 I have a used DC 4-1 in my garage

There is nothing wrong with a 2.25" collector unless the eventual plan is to get crazy cams etc.

I have a Comptech TIG welded header for $280 shipped if you need one.

 

Comptech is good **** and thats a damn good price for one, even used....their headers are excellent...
