    f22b1 vtec performance headers?

    tri-y is simply another term for a 4-2-1 header. It is not a brand.
    OBX is a knockoff "ebay" brand... they make headers that are basically copies of the DC Sports design.

    There are plenty of header options available, especially if you're only interested in the cheap crap that won't give you more than 5hp. The F22B1 isn't really the best choice for performance anyway... The F22A that comes stock in the CB is a much better peformance motor, to be honest.

        The F22B1's VTEC is not really performance oriented as say an H22A. However, it is better than the VTEC profile you would get on an F23A. Before you start slapping on crappy parts, I would recommend actually writing down a plan and then sticking with it, which can be the hard part.

            They're pretty much all the same until you buy a bisimoto header. The DC isn't going to get you much more power than the a4 exhaust manifold, to be honest.

              All the kids want VTEC, and assume the POS F22B1 is a worthwhile swap... at least you weren't looking to do a headswap!

              But yes, the F22A has limited performance options. Until recently, nobody really gave it a chance N/A. Bisimoto is pretty much the reason everyone knows its potential, and the Bisimoto header is the only one that will REALLY make power. It made 27whp on a bone-stock F22A1, untuned. Of course, it costs more than what half the kids are paying for their CB7s these days. You have to pay for the best... or you can throw a few bucks at your car here and there and see minimal gains.

                  You only have one header on an inline four.

                  What you are looking at there is the prototype design. This is the link for the actual header. http://bisimoto.com/store/index.php?...roducts_id=367
                  It's not a generic design. Special consideration is taken for your particular build. That's why it's not just "send us money and we'll ship you a header". You order it, you provide your specs, and they build it. That's how REAL custom headers are made... not just off-the-shelf crap.

                    I do too!!!!!!!


                    Where do you get 27whp?
                    Even on the Bisi site it only says 17 for the production model. Is the prototype super secretly awesome?

                      "over 17whp"... and that's showing it for the F22Ax and H23A. The H series seems to gain less, since the H series heads flow better in stock form.

                          Yeah, that's what everyone says. They'd rather spend $400 on 5hp than $800 on 30hp. I don't get it, but it seems to be how things are done around here.

                          Do you live in CA (I'm sorry, I don't know what that area code is in your location, so i have to waste my time asking this question.) If so, then you'll need DC's CARB exempt status, which is why they cost more than cheapie headers. If you are not in CA, then you could spend $50 on ebay and get the same level of performance as the DC header, with slightly worse build quality.

                          Just one question: what are you going to do with the other DC headers once you install the DC header that will fit on your engine?
