header 1 has that funky bend at the bottom.

where as header 2 has the 4 to 1 what seems to be kind of abrupt…

header 1 looks like it may… flow better

header number 1 will probably produce better low end with the shorter runners, however 2 look slike you see better gains up top with the longer runners.

but i cant realy say much about either without seeing the collector. the collector is where the power is made.

4 into 1 produces more top end, tri y is for midrange. granted they are of same build quality you have to decide what power range you want.

i dunno i want to do a lot of auto-x this year so im thinking low end tq would be better. my eventual goal is to get to 200 RWHP NA but that probably wont happen this year due to lack of after market support right now

#1 has no merge collector.

#1 looks like a cheap OBX type ebay pile of doodie.

#2 appears to be of better quality and appears to be coated.

My vote #2.

you will never get the lo end tq you want outta the 4cyl. so you might as well try to get as much as you can up top and learn to keep your car in the power band.

header #2 for sure.
