Hey guys, i know we've gone over the topic of headers many times. But i cant seem to find the topic that shows the results for the best headers? I've been waiting for the results, but cant seem find the topic . I was just wondering if one of you guys would give me a list of the best headers 4-2 for a honda prelude 2000 not type sh.

 

its all about how much cash you are willing to spend to obtain the best product.

To name a few
Hytech
Prospeed
AN-R
i believe Burns is going to release something
also, a member on here by the name of rick solis is also going to offer an awesome header.

how much do you want to spend ?

 

uMMm i was thinking of spending about 3-400. hmm you didn't list..dc headers..i've heard that those were pretty good, even though alot of ppl rag on them.

 

dc is good when you modify the collector. A non-modified dc collector is not worth it. Try to find a use dc header if your tryin to save money and then mod it.

good luck

 

they're solid for a few gains. Don't be expecting like 10 to 15 whp from the header.

 

not from 3-400 dollars, dont expect much. Get a used DC and mod the collector to 2.5. i myself have chosen a different route.

for 300-400, the greddy is the best in that range.

For 5th gen? I've only seen it listed as "in development," but greddy does have a 4th gen header, which leads me to ask, how would you have to modify a 4th gen header, to fit it onto a 5th gen. Are there any substantial differences?

you would have to modify a 4th gen header, which from what i understand, isn't that difficult?

there should be a write up on PO.com i'm lookin as we speak.

eureka: modifications necessary on a fujitsubo 4th gen to fit a 5th http://www.preludeonline.com/s...41051 (which would apply to any header cut to OE spec)

some general thoughts on the greddy 5th gen modifications

 

So i cant buy a greddy header for my 4th gen h22 in my accord.

Could you cut & paste the text from that site? I'm not registered there, and therefore can't view the site. Thanks.

 

I'm working on saving up money for the SMSP header, its like 1100 bux, but i wanna get my intake mani or ITB's and header at the same time, so i got alot of saving to do

 

Heres one available through H-T member Rick Solis...

you can, but you might have to have a muffler shop modify the length of the collector (shouldnt be more than $50 and 30 minutes)

Rick Solis: your header looks great man

whats the price on it?

 

solis that is a funny avaitar I will have to be creative like you ... rick are you the one that makes you re own headers I have heard that there is a fella on here that makes his own headers ... they look good

 

I dont personally build the headers, they are made by a well known fabricator who makes headers for some of the biggest names/companies in the industry...

for pricing or any other questions PM me

 

Rick, you know the plan, AKSC and other SOHC undoings.

"St3v3" will understand.

 

when u modify the collector does it make that great of a difference?

what is stock measurements on a dc 4-2-1 ?

thx :-D

 

stock is 1.8" ID, so upgrading to a 2.5" (most likely thats OD) so its about 2.36" ID which is a big improvement over stock/dc/etc

 

Bah! How about one of these! I made it but have no idea how well it works ...

 

why dont you make a wing nut tab thingy at the end of that header so you can try different collector and length to see which would gain a little more. i would buy a burns collector and lengthen the end ofthe pipe.

The picture above is of a prototype header...

The real versions will include a CNC flange and true 4-1 slip style merge collector or 4-2-1 slip style tri y... This allows you to change from the 4-1 to a tri y or vise versa... it also makes instalation a breeze

 

the best headers ive seen other than customs ones are kamikazes. u can find them at alot different websites if just go to google and type in kamikaze headers.
they run about $265 to $300 i think depending on what finish u get. the best thing is they are a true 4-1 pipe. as soon as the 4 pipes merge it goes to one big long pipe for the high end HP. most 4-1's like dc are just all 4 pipes leading into a collector just a few inches long. i have several buddies that got them and they all love them, especially for the price.
