Default look what header I just got :)

I got the RSR top half for 50 bucks! I think I got a really good deal on this just need to sand and polish . I measured it and the top part is oval and hence the diameters are 1.75"x1.375" and the diameter of the bottom part is 1.875". I have some questions though:

1)I was wondering since I only got the top part, do u think I can buy those cheapo-ebay-dccopies and use the bottom half?
2)what is the diameter of the secondaries in a dc header
3) do you think I can bore out the secondaries on this RSR from 1.875" to 2"?

Thanks
-Moh



edit: I messed up one of the diameters...oops

It has a plate welded on the 1st pipe from the right that says "RSR", some numbers, and some stuff in japanese. I have read up at several placed where it says that JUN and RSR are the same except JUN has jun stuff welded on the top where the RSR header has it the plate welded on the same place as I said it. hehehe. I will take pics of it and post it online.

Ok since no one can answer my original questions, can someone at least tell me this:

I am just going to do a custom bottom section so where can I get a flange (with two 2"diameter holes) for where the bottom portion meets the top portion, like the circled one in the pic.

i bet a megan racing one will fit. but i wouldnt want a rsr/megan header. so just custom fab a stainless steel tube with a flex pipe and weld it on. that would make it a 4-1 header. more power imo

lol actually I went out and researched a little and decided that I want to custom fab the bottom part cause I want larger pipes/collector. I didnt want to make another thread and that is why I want to know where I can get that specific circled part.
Thanks

I always hear that the kamakazie header is only benefitial for superchargers and not n/a cause of the way they are designed or something.
