tried it out yet iceman?
 
mate has just threw it on b16a2 at the mo so absolute no data yet, should have b16b in next few weeks but there wont be any before results so not gonna tell us much, wont even have base run of totally stock setup so final result will tell even less

From what I read, the Narrow header makes pretty good power on stock motors. I'm sure your mate will be happy with the results. I haven't install mines yet, because there are a couple more things that I want to do my car and motor before I do it. I will post some pictures when the time comes.. :D
 
well im currently saving up for mine as well :) but i need to also purchase a slim fan because i do not want to cut my oem radiator :/. So has any one dyno'ed the header with a b16b yet? Very curious
 
I have this header on my b16a2 and I am very happy with it... makes good gains. Haven't dyno'ed it but you can definitely feel the difference..

2 Mr. Clean: You don't have to cut radiator, you just need to make small brackets that will move your stock fan about 1.5cm away from header. You also need to trim the fan 5mm from the point where fan and header touch. That is what I did :).

im such a dummy i didnt mean cut my radiator! DOH:angry2: i ment i did not want to cut my fan. That is why i wanted to invest in a slom==im fan :D Tax returns will be coming soon, so hopefully i will be able to make that purchase
 
Ok so i finally got mine and Ive got to say im pleased/not so pleased/pleased lol
The pros are:
1. I felt a good smooth powerband once it was bolted up
2. Excellent ground clearance
3. Looks amazing(always get compliments!!! :))
Cons
1. i didnt get the 15whp I took the car to a dyno 3 days later. My dyno figures before the header and stock ecu, i made 149. Once installed and tuned on hondata i made 154. Now that can be faulty with my motor as each tuner told me i need injectors but i didnt see the 15whp :)
Overall: I love opening my hood now!!! It looks great and my motor pulls way stronger now in 3rd and 4th gear. So here are some pics :)

realistically id have expected a 5 whp on some cars and see that as excellent result from good value budget header

do you run b16b with that intake, header, exhaust and s300 ? internally is motor stock ?

put overlap graph to show curves before and after to show proper comparison

Well my mods go as follows:
Hondata s300
Password Jdm Intake
RMF replica header
Apexi WSII exhaust
Cometic Headgasket
Arp Headstuds
B&M FPR

Here are my two dyno sheets

My goal is between 160 to 170 :/ that may be pushing it but I was told once i get my injectors i should be able to supply the motor with more fuel to gain more power... idk if thats rubbish or not but im going by it!
 
i just order my replica should be comming in soon, out of curiosity though mr. clean what in the world do you have to have 190 tq?? dont have to say your secret im just astonished for b series to have that much tq not boosted
 
something when wrong with the dyno same hp the first time 160 then 195
