hi again ....i can not find headers from dc sport for the b16a1
so is it worth the pain ? can i expect 5hp more from now as i have already ported b pipes ?
or this 5hp is more easy to given by puleys ?

imported_Hybridtheory

you should be able to find a header for a 1st gen B16 no problem...... mind you i havnt checked yet..... someone here can help you out with that


as for the hp...... its not so much the 4 or 5 horses you'll gain, its the engine breathing better that will be usefull....... if you have an intake/header/exhaust then the engine breathes alot better....... therefore running better


personally i would get a header.......... maybe not a dc, but a hedmen........ or ractive if your mad broke

Just get the header from a Del Sol VTEC. Its the same thing.

so b16a1 header is same with b16a2 ? or dc is same with del sols ?

labatia

will it make a difference?

5 hp where?

EG6_SiRII

I believe that DC does have a header for B16A1 since once I saw a JDM B16A1 swap in a bodyshop with DC 4-2-1 header.

Import Racer

I have a B16A1 and yes, you can use any B16 header. I'm using a DC 4-2-1.

so import racer do you see any gains in power ? is it worth the money ?

Import Racer

honestly, you won't notice any gains unless you add a mandrel bent cat back system with an intake. You do feel a little more power, but don't expect to be thrown back against your seat when you accelerate. Only way to actually know if there's a gain is to take it to the dyno.

so is it worth 500 bucks or go for regrided cams and gears instead of headers ? hmmmmmmmm thing again to cams .........have you dyno your car ? what else you put in .....its sure ba6a1 becouse its euro spec ........

Import Racer

I'm not quite understanding your last statement/question.
But anyways, no I have never dynoed my car. If you're planning on getting cams, cam gears and other bolt on parts, then you should pick up the header. It's the combined parts you bolt on that'll give you more gains. Usually people start off with intake, full exhuast system (not just the muffler, cuz that'll do nothing except make noise), and header. After you do that, then go ahead with cams, cam gears...etc. Hope that helps.

thanks for the time ,.......................

What did I tell ya? No Cams are good unless the car is breathing properly.
Look into the SMSP headers that I told you about. Contact the guy in the info I gave you.
