Which headers to go with?

[SRV BOY]

I read a post by I think it was neutrino awhile back, saying that Greddy and Dc sports headers are no good. This will be for a 95 prelude with an h22a motor. Now he listed some good headers to go with, but I cannot remember which ones, do you guys know, or have any recommendations on which headers I should buy for my car? thanks

Greddy and DC are fine, also SMSP, AN-R, and a vast assortment of others, it depends on your needs, and budget.

well i got cash to spend, and my motor is bone stock with just a K&N intake. I am planning also to get the headers/exhaust/muffler, the whole thing changed

SMSP

also keep in mind that if you want mid to top end power, get a 4-1 header... for the low to mid range, go for a 4-2-1.

Bah, header design as far as diameter of the primaries, collector, length of runners, etc...have a LOT more to do with it then 4-2-1 or 4-1.

why are you looking for a new headder? stock prelude one's flow just as good as any dc headder out there, maybe better.. but if you are looking for a new one i agree with the SMSP.. can't go wrong there.. but if you're looking at some no-name one(if there is such thing) try and find one with a 2.5'' collector.. also try and figure out which you're lookin for.. more midrange or top end power.. i'm not sure what it is, but i think if you want more midrange power, go with shorter primaries... that's all i got for now

just regurgitating something i read somewhere.. it was a respectable site, but i can't remember it worth a damn.. can't find it in history either.. mighta been something i read on honda-tech.. bah whatever.. that's my story and i'm stickin to it

Ok thanks, it sounds like smsp is the one to go with, but i also wanna get a cat back, and I dont know which manufacturer to go with. I want an exhaust system that sounds good, but it not too loud, and of course for more performance. But we all know that hondas and exhausts is like hot and cold they dont mix well together. Their are very few hondas out their that sound good with exhaust, opposed to all the others that sound like shit. Any recommendations here? thanks guys
