Well, I put a huge hole in my Megan Racing B-series 4-1 header a few weeks back and need to get a new one, I had a few people look at it and say that the header is not fixable.

The motor is a B16A.

I think I want a 4-2-1 header since my car is a DD and I'd like to have my power band lower than where it's at with a 4-1.

I can spend up to 400$ on one.

Oh, and I want it 1-piece with a 2.5' collector.

Post up what brands you'd recommend.

I'd agree on the profab. I was very happy with the one I had.

x2, the tri-Y is one of the most proven designs out there. you may even be able to find a used hy-tech kinda close to your price range if you look hard enough.

ive never heard anything about greddy headers in general, id say thats a bad thing' as far as making power

you can buy a greddy or dc and make a few hp but if your staying na in the long run you"ll be more happy with a better quality header, i went from a jdm itr header to a profab and couldnt be happier with the results
