Toda is great but I didn't want to wait until the dollar picks up, not sure how long that will take. So I've just purchased the J's Racing header from JDMConcept and I'll post my thoughts around quality, installation and performance when it's installed. There are some modifications to make for it to fit the CL9 but I have a good place here in Perth to do the work. I also have the J's Test Pipe on the way as well. The header didn't come with that.
Don't forget a few of those kw's are gained from the high-flow metal cat and not the header alone.
Still, the Toda exhaust manifold is a proven thing!
Yes, but if you were using the Toda, you would need to splice in an aftermarket cat onto the test pipe section anyway.
You can't use the stock cat with it even if you cut the flange and weld on the test pipe flange and O2 sensor mounting because it would be too long to fit on the header section.

Just saying, the power gain should be compared with other header + cat combinations. If people are quoted 14kw atw as a 'header only' figure then it is slightly inflated. It's still an impressive gain though.
An exhaust shop would be able to modify the standard cat to fit. For the money though most people will opt for an aftermarket cat anyway, but using the standard cat isn't impossible.

No worries, I will do a before and after dyno then post the results. Probably won't be for a couple of weeks through as that's the earliest I could get my car booked in to do the work.
I paid $1225 delivered to my doorstep from JDMConcept.
