What's the best header or a decent one you guys would reccomend for nitrous?
Setup: B18b w/150 shot direct port

 

i would have to say you would want one that is:

stainless steel (a must have)
4-1
2.5" collector (another must have)
possibly a straight pipe......(150 shot could easily melt any cat)


on a budget i would go for a JDM DC Sports SS 4-1 header.

 

wtf?! are you nuts? a 150 shot, dizzam!

 

Yeah..I was looking into the JDM DC. Good price for a decent header. Why is the stainless steal reccomended though? Is the ceramic no good?

I don't understand why everyone is so scared of nitrous. I am going for 125 shot DRY on a built D16.

 

a 150 shot is just something you would see a V8 running

Shat ....150 shot to a v8 is like a 50 shot to us : p

if you really plan on running 150 shot of nitrious your going to be putting a tremendous ammount of head through that header......stainless steel can resist heat much better than mild steel coated in ceramic paint.......

 

The stainless is cheaper too isn't it? Anyone know a good place to get the JDM DC?

Not with a built motor. Matt Patrick is running a two stage setup on his D16Z6 A ZEX 125 shot dry + ZEX 120 shot wet, for a total of 245 shot. Not to mention he runs around 18 lbs of boost too. His block isn't sleeved either.

nah usually stainless is more expensive.......but it would be worth it for your nitrous setup......

Would you have photos of this? I wouldn't ever call anyone out on what they say, this is just damn hard to fathom.

What is so hard to fathom? Matt Patrick is the product manager for ZEX, he has one 3 out of the 4 NDRA races he has attended so far this year. Contact him yourself, he goes by the name Zex Man on here.

 

What about the Edelbrock header? I don't mind spending the extra money if it's worth it. But if I'm gonna get the same performance out of the cheaper one...

 

My friend had a Hatch with a GSR. And had 150 shot direct port. He went 7.4's in 1/8th mile with stock exhaust manifold. They stock one worked good with him. But a kamkazie (however you spell it) would also be a good choice with the 3"dp and then changes to 2 1/2 at collector.

 

any header with big runners...get the one with the best flow...i ran at LACR on wensday got a 14.4 on a 50 shot on a basically stock 00 GSR....i woulda broke into 13s if i woulda warmed up my tires some more...gonna post my slips n maybe vid as soon i get a scanner n the footage from my friend
