I belive it should be the Jacson racing titanium one, but only if you buy 2 and give one to me as a gift

the least expensive is the Megan, then the OBX ( I prefer the Megan, and then jump to T1R and a few hundreds more then is the J'racing.

ome post acuse the Megan to be too big in diameter( I don't belive it is too much if combined wisely) but you may create your own set up.

Has anyone even bought the T1R? I want one but Im waiting for my money to come in from taxes. By that time maybe another will come out. Seems to be taking forever.

Megan is recalling all their headers. Dont by one unless theres a post about a revised one.

Generaly : Mugen Very very good quality, but not best performance.

Toda : Best performance. But expensive (less than Mugen) and no product for Fit.

I have the Mugen header and it is extremely well crafted. IMO it is worth every penny.

^^ agreed, of the ones that are available, I'd vote J's or Mugen; my preference is for the J's. You get what you pay for, and I'd rather pay more for something that's gonna last and give trouble free service, then skimp and be plagued with headaches.

Ive dynoed my 5 zigen headers and 5 zigen pro racer cat back, it gave me an added 8whp. Pretty happy with it.

Here's a new player in the Fit market but very familiar with Hondas, DC Sport. They're always worth the price.

On the header front, they are not only worth the price but they out perform more expensive headers by the JDM players.

Much better options for performance by the numbers by some of the non traditional "JDM" crowd. Depends if you want to brag about your car, or have more power.

Edelbrock and Crane are also worth keeping your eye on as the quality and dyno proven results are top notch. IMHO

Good info! If the engine breathes better with a header, would you get better gas mileage?

I had a intake, header, exhaust, and cams, fuel system, and computer done on my Integra and actually got better mileage as long as I wasn't hammering on it. Better on the highway anyway.

Different engine, different car, different computer, different...ect.. but my experience. Too many variables, really to determine. Just have to waite and see when the tuned Fits start rolling this summier.

I pick up my SSM Fit tomorrow BTW!!!
