Headers/Manifold
Hi guys,
Just wanting a lil help....wanted to know if anyone could help me out in what brand headers/Manifold is best suited for a 93 H22A engine???????????

Bisimoto undoubtedly make 'the' best.. But it's at a big cost.
DC/Megan/eBay/whoever else.. Make 4-2-1 Header+Downpipes that aren't half bad! Obviously nothing like the 20+ whp gain on the Bisimoto Header, but it's still a nice sound upgrade.
Just a note with the DC/Megan/whoever else.. They are NO better than the eBay ripoffs. Only difference is the eBay ones have poor quality control, you 'might' get a dud whereas the brand named ones rarely have faults.. Exact same design however.. (I've abused an eBay 4-2-1 Header on my F22A for 18 months, it's been so hot it's gone white, blue and then purple! No let-downs.. I got it for $80 shipped from the USA, quality welds and the stainless steel has a decent wall thickness)
Pacemaker make a set for the H22A iirc, ask your local Exhaust shop.
On the subject of Exhaust shops! Some of the better ones can make up 'custom' Headers for you! Usually at a good price, and you can have some say in pipe diameters, collector style, etc.

Ive heard of OBX thrown around but not much more.

OBX are in the same league as the DC/Megan.. Just an eBay header with a brandname on it.
RMF i don't know, but Tri-Y is as above.
Get the eBay one, if it cracks.. Weld it up.. Or buy another, or two more! And it'll still be cheaper than any of those named ones.. With all of the same potential

fujitsubo or mugen headers

I'm not sure of piping sizes, but the design is the same as the eBay ones. Lol.

No dude, other way around. Ebay headers are the same design as Mugen/Fujitsubo. However their craftsmanship is nowhere near as competent due to the complete lack of R&D and probably only passable industrial skill. I'm sure the Fujitsubo and Mugen examples will be very well sized and perfectly shaped to optimise performance.
Sometimes you will get lucky though...so go for your Ebay junk.

RMF's are the bomb look crazy in the narrow style and gave me some damn good gains
-
mite look the same but materials used and internal design will alwaysbe different
but yes ebay copies are the best you can buy ozhonda knows this

Seeing as they're no longer on the car, maybe i'll cut them open and post a picture so we have proof of how we'll the collector is designed? Yes?
The welds suggest that there is more than 'passable' skill level involved.. They're flawless.

Why spend 4x the amount on a brandname, that doesn't do anything the lucky ebay replica does?
But i'm glad you agree.. Even if sarcastically
-
yes you are correct
there is a new trend in cars
ebaydm or ebayspec or fake spec or copy spec
put in next to the real thing it will always be at least 4 x crap
-
my mate bought tri y fake headers from ebay, design was crap and the gains from it was like - adding a pod fitler. as for the design, it hung very low and hits nearly every speed bump, on a mild low suspension.
genuine kiddracing RMF headers go for like, 500 , 600 new. best bang for buck header, even toda reccomends it.
looks the part aswell.
