    so did i - but from talking with Fredoops i have gone back and looked at them

    they do make nice headers and some nice Ti bits and bobs - their cheaper parts and torque dampers have a bad name tho

    they are suppose to be better than PLM but alot of guys are selling out their weapon R's for PLM headers

    i really want headers but the whole thing is so confusing

    might just save up and baller out with some Todas lol

    How can Weapon R be better then PLM?

    I thought PLM were selling Toda Style - Same dimensions, runner lenghts etc etc. Just made from Stainless steel.

    PLM is nothing like Toda,

    PLM header for the CL9 is a Hytech replica

    Whoa not comparing Toda against PLM, any tom dick and harry knows Toda is King Shit.

    I thought PLM took the proven macfactures desgines and specs and makes it out of stainless steel and sells it for fraction of the price.

    So we get similar proformance.

    the injen is a thinner material, its lighter and reduces heat transfer. the pod filters are irrelevent, as they both provide enough flow and theres nothing wrong with the mounting hardware on the injen the diffrence is that injen do there own research and development where as fujita copy the work of other company.... its rota all over again
    thats the way i understand it anyway please correct me if im wrong

    they dont copy others work - they are a more expensive and high end version of Injen
    maybe you got a cheap imitation fujita because i have installed alot of kits now and every single one was better than the Injen in everyway
    and the pod filter is alot better - we did a dyno test in the workshop back in the day by swapping them around and doing power runs and the fujita won out every time
    the only thing that beat the fujita pod filter was the apexi one (basically the same design)

    every time i have inspected fujita and injen for servicing the injen pod is always torn or ripped or something on it is rusty
    fujita almost dont even need to be checked now because theres never a fault

    not being a fan boy - i just like the results - most of the time fujita isnt that much more expensive

    Wrong

    Lighter and thinner pipes means INCREASED heatsoak and heat transfer rates, it's worse.

    Didnt Fujita came out with the CAI for TSX BEFORE Injen??

    Regardless, the oiled cotton filter Injen use, wasn't that a "K&N" design originally? like, from the 1960's? SO are they copycats of K&N oiled cotton design?


    You got an attitude problem.

    they are a replica of the Hytech headers - which is suppose to be a very good header but i dont think they make them anymore
    i havnt actually seen a PLM one yet but from what i have seen/read on US forums the material they use is fairly cheap/crap
    but the design is very good and people are getting good gains ...

    weaponR make the best bang for buck gains and i havnt seen anyone have any major issues with them
    but their other products are known to crap out - engine torque damper, intake kits etc

    DC header apparently is similar to weaponR but has issues with the flex pipes dying

    Comptech dont seem to have any complaints but dont get very good gains for the price

    then theres Toda which are amazing in everyway but cost $1200 odd

    and yet another - Maxim Works (which is the company that makes Toda's headers)
    basically a Toda header but slightly higher quality and a $1600 price tag

    im leaning toward the WeaponR header - or i might just save a bit more and keep my eyes open for a Toda
    mate just sold a used one in good condition for $800 ...

    Fredoops is right - lighter and thinner means more heat transfer
    and as far as i know they came out with a kit before Injen did

    they also made a better kit for the Dc2 VTI-R (different intake manifold position) than Injen as well
