Getting off topic here but..

I Totally agree. But there is always a balance between supply and demand and cost. If these company's price theirselves out of business, its their own fault. Volume is the key in running a successful business. Sell 5 at $800 or 25 at $500.. when it only costs $100 to make.

Anyways. I'm gonna get a legit header soon as I can afford it.

12 hours and counting til the madness begins

I'd buy a Bisi header for the F22A... but nothing else. There are other H22A headers on the market that clearly make more power. Mugen, HyTech, SMSP, RMF... I prefer to stick to the originals, even though they cost more. It's cheaper to buy a knockoff, but that effectively kills our aftermarket. If we don't support the originators, nothing new will ever be designed! I hate knockoff artists with a passion, especially when they copy and undersell small-batch high quality pieces like those I mentioned above.

Damn.. deev taking us to school lolol.. I didn't know all that, thanks for the info. Bisi header to me seems waaayy overpriced. Ill make my own before I buy one.

Full Race as a brand is far more than an "ebay" brand. They're a legit tuning house that has built some truly impressive cars.

The "tri-y" header design that's been going around for the H22 lately has been nothing more than a rip-off of the HyTech design. Shameful, IMO.

RMF is quality. Randy Monroe is a well known name in the scene, and has made some great stuff. Randy, sadly, has passed away. I do not know if the headers are continuing to be made. Bisimoto has directly accused RMF of stealing a prototype design, though I have heard nothing more of that since the initial accusation.

[cincy90h22]

Yes Deev you are correct about it not being truely for racing.. full race is a ebay name for the particular header. But its actually pretty legit looking. Only a dyno would show true gains.. maybe ill do that when I get one.. dyno before and after.

Anyway link to said header. Oops its called RMF DRAG header..

You guys are discussing the 4-2-1 and 4-1 header designs. Not really "full race" anything, unless it's made specifically for racing. The F22A1 has a 4-1 design (not exactly "full race"), and the F22A4/6 have a 4-2-1 design.

Yea it already feels better with the 3in.. I was looking at the tri y, or I think its called full race header.. its 4 pipes all the way under the oil pan to a collector. I'm gonna get one once I get my funds back.

Yeah it's called full race header and that exactly what it is

Nice! I have a 3inch exshaust on my all motor H23A VTEC. And surprisingly it's not loud at all, I don't have CATs either, but I do have a silencer on. I've read many threads on HT.com that H- series and K- series motors gain power with 3 inch exshaust even when going All Motor. I'm happy with my set up. It makes 200hp to the wheels. I'm sure your Supercharged motor will love it! I think you should get a better header though, DC headers suck maybe get a equal length header or a Tri-Y (like the one I have) with a 2.75 collector to match with your 3 inch exshaust.
I'm sure you will see even more HP gain with that 3 inch exshaust.

Um, like stock, why would you go under the tank? I work at a shop, I welded it.

Just wondering, I've seen people go straight back. And lucky you. I gotta run a cord down from my 2nd floor apt to my welder XD...

[SNOOZE]

Damn.. no action on this thread in a bit LOL. Guess everyone is waiting for an update..

Redid my exhaust today, 3in header back, wrx muffler, no cat. Sounds OK, low and mellow at low Rome a bit raspy when you get on it. Sounds better than my previous fart can.

Dyno Friday.. finally.

If you make such a kit, I may be interested myself!

[cincy90h22]

Tuning on crome. I have thought about manufacturing all the brackets and selling it as a kit. Once I get mine tuned, I may revise the design first, then look into making them.

[gloryaccordy]

What are you gonna tune with bro

You thinking about selling the brackets as a kit?

Damn this is kind of exciting.

[cincy90h22]

Do did u weld it urself or have a shop do it. And did u follow stock curve or go straight under the gas tank...
