JDMYard 4-2-1 Header vs SPOON 4-2-1 Header vs...

[EGG5]

Hi guys,

Trying to do some research on headers for my EP3, brands such as TODA and SSR have popped up frequently but I don't really want to wait TOO long for TODA stuff.

JDMyard K series header costs around 1k and SPOON header costs around 1.5k. So was just wondering whether or not the extra $500 is worth it or not? OR should I pick another brand?

Cheers!

Tegiwa headers Toda reps quality is excellent i had them on my old ep3 made a nice difference could certainly feel it. worth around $530 shipped to Australia. brand new in the box, the piping diameter and overall size is exactly the same as toda header,imo you're just paying for the name.

Keep in mind it has no cat :) - bolts straight onto stock exhaust system and most aftermarket systems
If you want go compare toda headers and tegiwa header's, you wont find a difference and Tegiwa ship pretty fast.

Brand names aren't always the best. Like said above, there are Replicas made that can do the job just aswell for half the price...

[u mad?]

Fukin get what u pay for. Truest saying ever.

[cihanvtec]

unless u tune it your not going to tell the difference with between a $100 header or a $1000 header. they are all the same crap! shit like this just piss me
off! people paying thousands for a brand name when their are replicas that do the same thing for half the price!

i have 2 mates with ep3s. both have a spoon catback. one has tegiwa headers and the other has buddyclub. both are running the gruppe m intake. and both are making pretty much identical power with a kpro tuned by the same person.. if you have a money tree or your dad is somehow related to bill gates, go the todas. if not go with the tegiwa! theyre just as good!

only downside of the tegiwa headers is you cant boast on about how you paid soo much for your toda or buddyclubs!

[u mad?]

Lmao ok.

[AK Type R]

dont you mean K-pro ?

[cihanvtec]

lol yes i do

I must say that you are not paying just for the Brand. Think about the cost of R&D put into producing a decent product.
If you say that it is a replica, then the price just justify why they are replica. They did not put in effort in the R&D thus producing it cheaper.

You are paying more for the effort ppl put into R&D. That is why TODA and SPOON might price too steep as compared to others.

Just my 2c worth. Do not feel offended. Put a price on something you think is worth paying.

[curtis265]

the replica product aims to copy the "final report" instead of doing the actual assignment.

that's what you're paying for.
