JASMA = CARB

 

I just throw that term out there to refer to the JDM legal headers.

 

Most of the fleabay headers seem to have the correct flange and look to be about the right angle. There isn't really enough clearance for them to be far off the mark. But i'm interested in what everyone finds out.

 

So far I've found that most of the aftermarket header designs (ranging from d-series pacesetter crap to DC sports 4-2-1's) all seem to have the same size flange for the 2 piece sections that bolt together. Hell JD, they're even the same size flanges as the stock honda cast 4-2-1's...had to fab up a down piece for my friend's d15b and I used a DC b-series down piece section and it was the same size, only had to add a little length to make it fit properly. I'd say hit up ebay for one of those el-cheapo 2 piece manifolds. Brace and reinforce the welds and you should be golden.

 

My problem is, I can get one of the eGay headers for $90 to the door. That's $50 too much, and $70 more than I want to pay.

 

I got mine for $41 shipped for a D-Series. The same place has $65 shipped for B-Series: http://stores.ebay.com/JSAuto-Accessories

If you do get a chinese header and want to boost it via elephant:

• Do not use the studs they provide.
• Do not use the 2-hole gasket they provide.
• Make a brace for the top part to the block
• Make a brace for the elephant to the block.

Good luck.
