Depends on how the extractors are built...

4-1 is for better Top End

4-2-1 provides mid range

Then you have to look into the length of the primaries as well....

not rare - in fact MOST situations a header might give a loss of power*.

*IMO This is tied in with other modifications . . . if your car is stock and you chuck on any aftermarket header you will likely loose low to mid torque ( IE driveability) - but as revs rise and the engine reaches its limits no doubnt due to less restriction there will be increased flow and then increased "peak power".
Modify your car/ECU to suit the new amount of header primary+secondary design , then you can tune and take advantage of that extraflow :)

Perth. this is my second honda.
last one got stollen it was a 83 lude (rust buket)
i had a nissan 200sx 2002 baught it new and spend 10gs on it, i was a 12sec car.
i allways liked integras wanna c how quik i can get a nonvetc with just bolt on mods, then turbo it when motor needs rebuild with forged internals.

15.6 down the quarter is blardi fast condering youve got a 60ft of 2.6 and with just a CAI. Thats similar to a stock VTiR.

Aus spec ITR dont provide any compared to VTi-R Ive noticed on dynos and conversions.

It is in fact much lighter than teh Vti-R ones

yes that is true, they r the same just difference is weight. the aus type r are mild-steel while the vtir are cast which save around 2kgs.
