post on headers, headers Options

[BeefyT]

I was reading celicav's post about the ebay headers and i was wondering how it would sound if i have stock exaust? Im planning on getting the headers and i dont

want my car to sound ricey. I will eventually get a cat-back exaust but i wanna get the headers first.

If I remember correctly from reading about different header designs, a 4-1 will typically increase power at higher rpm ranges, while a 4-2-1 will increase HP at a lower range. My wife's 94 GT has a 4-1 on it and I can honstly feel an increase in power at around 4500rpm...but the car rarely sees those RPMs (only when I'm driving it ), so a 4-2-1 seems to make more sense for the 5SFE...but as its been stated already, those aren't readily available. Time to make friends with a good welder!
