dam that's pretty low, sterring clear of those when I upgrade my headers
They hang ~1cm lower on the B16a coz of the shorter deck height

Hytech replica on a B20VTEC, my engine actually sits a bit higher with the Avid engine mounts but still manage to bottom out on the header :( Im running 14" rims atm though
there's already signs of combat wounds on your header. =[
What you guys need is: http://www.teammfactory.com/products...id%20Plate ;)
i heard mfactory has a Tri-Y design for headers as well. Maybe you guys can donate a set for the up and coming test?
The ones we had were a limited batch leftover from an order from a customer. We do not offer the header as part of our catalog.
Ahhh i see.... but they do sell them internationally right?
Our HK office used to sell them, but since the split from them and moving everything stateside, we no longer offer generic items, only the items in our catalog :)
any1 have actual pic of hytech header on a b16 showing the ground clearance?
It would be the same as the Buddyclub header shown on the previous pageQuote:

buddy club is tri y...
Note to all - tri-y is a design of a header. NOT a brand.
Tri-y design allows each cylinder pulse to merge correctly and without turbulence
Refer to this - http://rocky-road.com/thorley.html
:thumbsup::thumbsup:thanks for the clarificationQuote:

so for clearance issues..
you would want a design like the 3rd one in this pic (because the tubes are not on top of each other, but instead, side by side):

anyone know of cheap knock offs with such a design?
not really, even if the tubes were next to each other, you dont know if the primaries before the 90degree bend are lower..
bennjamin edit not relevant dont hijack dude
im pretty noob to this Tri Y Headers thingy lol but yea anyways my question is
Since the Headers are so long, does that mean we need a shorter Catback or something? does this make the tip of the muffler stick out more o_0? ive got a 5zigen 421 and man the tail does not look that long lol
yeah you'd have to cut your b-pipe to allow it to fit
good thread
ill need to keep an eye on this for my upcoming b20vtec build
atm im keen on the hytech tri y replicas, but the ground clearance is a bit iffy
i got the tri y ground clearance on the b16a is terrible.
lol
power wise isnt the best.. but maybe afew more upgrades should do it.
im more happy with them.. now then i was before.
hmm, i was about to ask that^
It seems as if they are suited to 1.8 and 2.0ltr builds. So you reckon they wouldnt be suited to a stock b16? Gound clearance sounds bad too :(
well i wouldnt spend $800 or more on these headers.. replica or the real deal.
not for the standard mods anyway.
$550 would be my price i would pay for them.. for a b16..
but ive seen these things on b18c7 and they haul ass
maybe then on a b20, due to the higher deck height, they will get a bit more ground clearance.
hopefully
lol
yeah clearance for b20 and b18 should be much better... well i know b18 is..
had to raise my car.. 4wd spec ftw!
so does buddyclub tri-y has a better clearance than the hytech tri-y ?
They are the exact same designQuote:

With these tri-y design headers on b16a it'll hand 7mm lower then b18c blocks.
just wanna ask is there any diff between the 1 piece extractor and 2 piece extractor?
Oh ok just to confirm to fit the replica tri-y regular tube... we don't have to remove a/c and we have to cut our b pipe in order for cat to fit and also cut into the cross member?
hey guys, just put 1 on my car.
lose some low end power.
quite alot of gains up the vtec range.
the above based on butt dyno, no real figures to support my stand.
makes the engine sounds raw.
makes engine check light come on ( hopefully this wld be solved soon )
don't have to remove a/c to fit in.. just a pain in the arseQuote:

no need to cut into anything.. should fit underneath
also if running a b18c7 you'll need a b16 flywheel cover to fit the tri-y's under there
if anything it would be the o2 sensor..Quote:

Cheers
small tube will be good for a stock b18c2Quote:
