Integra Type R header opinions
 
Hey how are you guys doing? I found this header that is exclusive to JKG ULTIMATE MOTORSPORTS and need some opinions on it. Here is the link:

So far I notice it has thick steel and should handle the test of time. Apparently a stock SIR got 7WHP out of it which isn't bad. Let me know guys. Thanks.

The welds around the flanges look like they were done by a 6 year old blind Indonesian kid.

The 2.5" collector will gain some power, but the quality is going to be lacking at that price.

everything the real ITR header is...but everything the ITR header isnt. Those welds look horrible.

IMO, getting the real deal is the best way to go if u plan on getting the 2.5 inch 4-1 header.

I looked at other ebay headers and they are far worse. Some don't even look real, they look like black plastic lol. I have heard nothing but good things about this particular header. They get there stuff from Japan apparently.

And the one you linked us to doesn't look like a playskool toy? Just because you get something from Japan doesn't make it good. Japan is closer to China where all the quality products come from.

im not going to knock taiwan or china parts. they are getting better and sometimes surpass japanese quality.


but shitty welds are shitty welds. japan or not, they are shitty welds.

The DC ITR header copy is very good quality and cheap. Get that instead.
