Default Budget Headers: Megan VS Berk
Ive heard much about both (megan and Berk) but Ive never really heard people debate the differences between the two. Im looking for a header that will get me decent gains but avoid the high cost of the JDM pieces. Anyone have an idea of the differences between the two?
thanks

From lots of reading on here the Megan header seems to be pretty nice especially for the money. I have used Megan products for other cars of my(DSM) and they were great quality and I picked up tons of power. Was for a turbo car so much easier to pick up power, but I have heard of some decent gains with the Megan header, also much lighter which is nice as well.
Megan header is the one I will go with when I buy one.

I gained 12 HP from the Megan header.
The before and after results. Hope this helps.

Is your opinion based on a header for our car in general or just on the Megan?

What exhaust were you running and did you change anything else on the car?

So the 2.5" Exhaust and TP is the red line, and adding the Header only is the blue?
