used during countdownthen... how bout 4-3-2-1..???
in general, 4-1 headers lets the engine make more power at the higher rpm ranges, at the expense of the low end; thus more suited for high-revving engines like b16/4age where the revs go sky-highsorry... this may seem like a silly question but what do you mean by moving the powerband towards the higher regions and suitable for high-revving engines?
I've heard that 4-1 are better for driving at higher speeds and 4-2-1 are better for improving low end torque.
yalah, didnt say it " Must " be lower la, thats y i specifically stated " In General " meaning not all :P, in all my commentswhich are good for which RPM not really a matter la... just make sure wat the future mod will u b done, then only decide the 4-1 or 4-2-1....
not many mech really know how to do the 4-1 that got all the pros setup in here... even they know, they oso won't share 1...
who said 4-1's torq must b lower than 4-2-1..??
if i recall correctly, i came across this interesting article where they tested a 4-2-1 and a 4-1 header on the same engine; powerband was broader, improvement throughout rpm range, more obvious on the low to mid range4-2-1 low to mid?
4-1 mid to high end?
How much rpm is consider hi rpm?
how bout if engine rev limit is 9k which is suitable?
understand la bro... hahahahayalah, didnt say it " Must " be lower la, thats y i specifically stated " In General " meaning not all :P, in all my comments
e.g. in general, most aftermarket 4-1 headers are more for mid to higher rpm improvement
true true about the properly made headers, unless branded jap-made, or reputable local ones like PZ
thats y i specifically stated " In General " meaning not all, and more often than not, this is true for "aftermarket" headerswhy most of the new car they use 4-1?
as for standard car power feel is ok even it is 4-1
haha okunderstand la bro... hahahaha
ya troo length/size....mayb shld explain on the pipe sizes, or small inlet for the 4-1 & big inlet 4-1, same goes the 4-2-1....
Wow nice header!!!ya troo length/size....
here is a very nice detailed article:
