4-1 are more of a top end extractor
4-2-1 are a mid range extractor

depends on your application you will get good results from both.

if your planning on more mods than your I/H/E id go with the 4-1
but if you will settle with just IHE 4-2-1 should be just fine.......i just got my 4-1 headers installed this morning and they make the car sound very very tuff!!

what mods are you planning other than your intake n exhaust??

IMO i reckon a 4-2-1 will be best for you just now.
it doesnt look like you guys goin to be doin that much mods to it.

simple answer...

high end power gain 4-1

bottom end power gain 4-2-1

i dont think its a question of which one is better, but a questions of which one will meet ur needs....

i got 4-1 on my car atm, it gives good top end but the midrange stays like stock
