Just installed Weapon-R Race Header!!! Pics inside
 
I just installed my header tonight and let me tell you, the difference in this verses the Megan header and T1R cat delete is amazing! Before my car would feel like it had no mid range power at all it would only pull hard above 5k but now it pulls like a freight train from 3k all the way to redline. This header made my exhaust quieter and deeper i will try to get some video sometime. Overall I would have to say I am very pleased with this purchase. now on to the pics:

Are you running E-manage?

dimpthepimp 04-25-2008 12:54 AM

thats a nice lookin header. havent yet seen one quite like that, what is the price on this header and where do you buy? what about emissions will the fit pass without the cat? cause i know some car will run so clean they dont need cat to pass emissions. if so let us know

Good thinking. I might even look into a wideband and o2 sensor. ;)

looks good man.

hey a person from greensboro! i used to live there haha

back on topic...man only if i decide to go supercharger will i decide to buy this header. because im still debating about turbo and supercharger.


i love the wr race header, that thing is sooo amazing.


i dont think it will pass emissions. its 500 shipped from the merchant fs thread.

Yes the cat is deleted on both downpipes....the Weapon R downpipe has a flex pipe on it.....removing the cat & it looks like he has the T1R downpipe as well which is just a straight pipe.

I only see one O2 sensor prong, at the end of the test pipe. There is none on the dual collector?

I see that as well....is there a O2 sensor on the Weapon R header?
If not is there some sort of bypass for that 1?

What kind of exhaust are you running? I noticed in your sig you say Aspec, but is that an axle-back or the full exhaust they offer?

Thats good to know. While I never got to drive my car with the Megan header due to it leaking like a motha chicken I love the gains from my T1R cat-delete.

I think Im going to buy this RH.

very sexy header.

question: where the 2 pipes are on the racing header, how do those pipes connect? do they just slide into one another and hold or what?
i assume the fit as dual o2 sensors (maybe not?), so why is there only 1 bung?

and any word on passing emissions? will it pass with the rh and intake etc?

Raaaaaaaaaay. 04-27-2008 10:18 PM

There should be another o2 bung. I think I remember seeing one when I held the header at a local Fit meet.

The header will not pass emissions due to deleting the cat. They do not offer this header with the cat, thats why its called a race header. WR makes a shorty header also.

vafitfreak 04-27-2008 11:17 PM

it has 2 o2 bungs, it slips together then bolts together, and i could care less about emissions no testing where i live

its very convenient however technically any modification at all is considered illegal so i can still get a ticket

solbrothers 04-28-2008 12:06 AM

wow. looks good

Raaaaaaaaaay. 04-28-2008 05:21 PM

So... do you have a full exhaust or a muffler?
