I'm looking to get a manifold for ek9, been reading the forum and asking some friends and they say 5zigen is a good make to go for. Just wondering if anyone has this and what experience it has been like? Also how much do they retail for roughly?

Thanks

A decent product for the money, new probably £350-400 now? Had mine for about 18 months, paid £300.
 
had a 5zigen on my old ef9, value for money excellent quality 4branch!!! :)
 
I've got a 4-2-1 and it's good good ground clearance as well...

Nice! Well I think I might go for one so if anyone has one for sale, please pm me! Does anyone which retailers sell this? Struggling to find online uk retailers. Maybe I'm not looking hard enough lol
 
Gone up quite a bit considering you said you paid £300 for yours 18months ago!
 
I got 1 on my high comp b18c, i think its a great header i carnt fault it.

the US i beleive, but a few people on here will vouch for it (jokeshopbeard, ragingangel) as a top class header capeable of providing performance gains,

I was going to buy one until a Toda came up for a bargain price.

I rate headers as follows

TODA>VIBRANT>5zigen, OE 98 Jap spec, mugen etc etc etc, :nice:
 
yeh todas r schwweeet:nice:
does it really restore 15% more torque in midrange grunt?
i got a hks 4-1 as was opting for toda..

not had teh car dyno`ed but certainly feels stronger midrange, i would imagine with a remap to optimise my mods i would get the gains you`re quoting :nice:
 
I would love a toda! but gotta be in a reasonable price range, what about buddy club manifolds?
 
buddyblub wood be similar to 5zig i reckon, i got bc spec3 exhaust and its LOUD!!
 
i got a 5zigen there couple of weeks ago def feel the difference.Give baz(bsp imports.com) a shout hell sort you out
 
really...can u elaborate? what have u come across to say that? i "wood" of rated mugen up there with toda....
