what header would be best for a b16? i like the hytech replica, but the b16 has a shorter deck height than the gsr/type r and would hang too low. i need to find a header that doesnt hang low to prevent denting the bottom. tell me what you guys think.

 

well I have a b16....99si with a gsr block tho...I just orderd my hytech replica... I wanna get it put on this weekend...so I can let you know where it sits

 

aight but is a b16 block any shorter than a gsr block? lmk anyways.

 

yea the gsr block is a little bigger...but Ill let you know anyway

 

the hytech will make good power but it WILL hang low.i have this instsalled on my hatch with a b series swap and upon instsallation i had to raise the car up some from fear of damaging it. but the project has come to a stop so can not say of the power increase. from the net what people have posted they have made good power. if you want to get a header that will make good power and not hang low get a Comptech header. i had this before the hytech and made 190+ wheel horsepower through a full exhaust system.

 

comptech will have good clearance and the greddy one will too. also consider a jdm type r header with a heat shield/ skid plate. my hytech rep. hits but made good power. id say jdm type r or the copmtech from renegade.

 

toda

 

not looking to spend a lot of money on a header like a toda. but i did come across this one: JDMsh!t
its an exact replica of the mugen header

or the jdm itr style is about the same amount of $.

 

thatl do.
