try www.japperformanceparts.co.uk he normally has a good selection at the right price...

I contact them yesterday, i might be buying parts from them, thank you! :p

The only problem i got, i think that the shipping from uk, to usa, will not be cheap :mad:

Those could be any brand of aftermarket header but they are heat wrapped and painted..

yes, i want to get mugen headers, but they are way to expensive :(

What about Spoon?

According to dyno results i found on the internet, the best header on a b16b is the TODA one, but its very very expensive, Spoon its a good option, but its also very expensive, like 1000 $

I'm going to San Francisco , USA on december, i want to buy mugen headers / hks hypermax 2 suspension, and maybe some volks te37 wheels :) :eek:
 
what do you think of USA headers, for example, dc sports, comptech etc ?

DC Sport......AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Comptech.....Almost as good as DC

If i dont buy the mugen one, i will consider buying the dc sports 4 - 2 - 1, but i dont know if the oem type r one is better :confused:
 
Id say go for the DC Sport one over the OEM Type R header, not only will it sound better, but a few horses will be gained...

I bought my EK9 almost two years ago knowing nothing about aftermarket performance parts before. I was just hoping to buy the car. :D It took me 6 months to learn that JASMA(Japanese Automobile Sports Muffler Association) is not a brand but just a certification for emission, quality etc....So then I was looking on the header to see a stamp or something for the brand and I saw "5Zigen". :confused: I thought this nust be a crap since I was never heart about it, but seaching on the net for a while I was quite impressed about 5Zigen (5 dimensions). This USA maker is specialized in the developement of racing exhaust systems and its the 3 leading manufacturer in Japan!!!
Mine is 4-2-1 and is desinged for midrange power and indeed is true. This header along with a pair of SKunk2 Racing Stage 2 cams which are specifically designed for top end power is a perfect match. Believe my words!!! :bow:
If any of you guys has anything to say about this header I would like to hear! :thanks:
There are a lot of interesting details about 5Zigen in its official website
 
Hytech headers are the best of the best, but expensive. I would have to go with type-r header > dc sports header also.
