Bisimoto H22 Header Interest

[deevergote]

Bisi doesn't do anything just for looks It certainly won't look like crap, but it will be a proper performance piece with high quality fit and finish.

I have high hopes for this header. Bisi is an incredibly intelligent man, and he understands how such things work. I'm expecting this header to perform as well as (or better than, maybe) the SMSP header. I believe that header showed a gain of 18whp or something? It also costs about twice what Bisi is planning on charging. If the street version only gives 15whp as opposed to the SMSP's 18whp, I'd still choose the Bisimoto piece. For the price, I'd rather save $400+ at the cost of 3whp! That money can be put into something else to make power!


The price that has been mentioned for this header has been in the $600-$700 range. It may not be set in stone, and it may go up. The power numbers I mentioned are just my uneducated guesses, based on minimal research done on other high-quality headers. They're better than nothing, but don't take any of it as FACT... Until the head is on the market, on the cars, and on the dyno, we won't know for sure. All I can say is that I'll be getting a Bisimoto header as soon as they're ready!

Should be I dont see why not. Worst case scenario you might have to run slim fans but they are cheap nowadays. Its like 50 per slim fan on HT right now anyway.

Bisimoto's approach is OEM fitment with all accessories P/S and A/C in place.

Also, it will more than likely be a 2.5" collector like the Fseries.

I do not know the sizes of the primaries, etc, that is all Bisimoto information and you're buying it for his knowledge and R&D, why question him? Otherwise, make it yourself.

FYI: I updated the list on first page as of now.

HondaFan can you move me to the maybe list...
I may have something coming up that will require an extended stretch of my funds and I don't want to hold anything up here.

[KeeleDesign]

Please remove me from the list,
:reason being: I am by no means impressed with the companies or personal lack of intrest.

i have found others that are more intrested and showing progress in prelude forums.

[deevergote]

Don't forget, Bisi is a pro racer FIRST, and a parts manufacturer SECOND.


I'll wait for this. I expect the only other header to offer comparable performance is the SMSP header, and that's twice the price. Of course, I have a lot of work to do to my car before a header is a priority anyway, so the delay is fine.

Deev what would we have to do to ask a magazine company to sponsor a header and a car so it can be tested? I ask because you own a honda web site and you could roughly sway a mag to test a NEW product for an OLD car but none the less it is a all out race product like BISI. Signing a petition or sending in like 1 dollar would be tight or something.

[deevergote]

Actually, if everyone sent a dollar to someone who was willing to take the time to dyno a car with and without such a header, it could be done.

I couldn't really sway a magazine... I could try, but this forum isn't really a big deal in the Honda tuning world. We're not Honda Tech, unfortunately... and we deal with one older generation of one fairly unpopular tuner car (among the serious tuners, anyway).


Bisi DOES the testing, though. That's part of what takes so long. The man is an engineer, he makes parts for his own professional race car, and he's an expert on the F22 (and probably every other common Honda motor). Independent testing of his products would further back up his claims, but honestly... I don't think test results are going to reveal anything that Bisi doesn't already tell us. You can tell by his pricing that he's clearly not out to swindle anyone. He's sharing his knowledge and expertise with the tuning world for a very minimal profit.

^ im down for that, Its good thats it s taken longer (for me any ways) getting my car back to normal and all that has taken a toll time. Oh well. When it comes out it comes out Ill be waiting on the maybe list. If its Limited Edition im geting one

[texasvtak]

Something tells me Ill be on the no list soon.

3/4 of the people on the board cant spend 700 dollars on a dsm turbo kit. 1/2 the people on the board dont want forced induction. and 9/10ths of the board are BROKE. I myself after reading the comparo's on the A6vsA4 header have decided for OE Legit riding the A4 would be my choice but its not worth the work at least to me. I am opting for a 70 dollar header. :shrg:

[ez8o5]

will it be EO Carb Legal??

[NAiL05]

What part of NOT carb legal do people not understand? Whats the difference with EO. Either way you want power CARB legal is fail.

Post up those ONLY interested in the Bisimoto H22 header. This thread will serve as a basis on who is seriously interested so Bisi can get an idea on the market. Keep this ontopic, all unrelated posts will be deleted. This is not a F22 vs H22 thread either! A list will be maintained in the first post of YES and MAYBE. People who are YES will only be seriously considered however. Price more than likely wil be $600-$700 range.

Will this header have an OEM type of fit.....esp for those who have the full size Accord radiator and air conditioning?

Yes, it will fit. Designed for A/C and P/S retained.

[HondaFan81]

...and perhaps the diameter of all the pipes?

2.5" collector

pipes, don't know

Please add me to the list.
