There's a new one on the market by Rick's - if it plays out like the salespeak says it should, it's likely the leader in the bang/buck ratio. It's modeled after the Mugen header.

I'll give a on the Rick's idea. I read the post (do a search) and it looks to be super nice. Mugen gains for half the price. Plus it allows for the installment of the factory heat shroud. I'd look into this. I think he was about to offer a group buy for some serious savings.

Mugen header offers better mid-range power over Toda and Toda shows more peak power over Mugen. They both have the same problem with the header bracket where it bolts the header to the block, most of them broke off.

Both headers are well build with top notch craftmanship but I will go for the J's Racing because it has the highest gains so far among those headers.

Just my 2 cents

will you (the driver) actually feel a difference before and after the header? or is it juss a matter of dyno testing?
