info so far....

From what i've seen, its between 3 different brands.

Kamikaze Header & downpipe (high gloss black) - $275

RRM Header (no downpipe) - $350

Works Stage2 Header (no downpipe) - $505

Few people seem to rock the Works header, because of price i believe.
Everyone loves RRM (propz to ROCK & family!).
BUT Kamikaze has Dynos vs. DC Sport Header (A Top name in Aftermarket) With the Kamikaze out performing the DC *gasp*

Thats my $0.02 - Come0n guys fill in my gaps.

RRM is good because with that you can still get their turbo kit. With any other company you cant. They are good quality and price. Someone is selling their RRM header for $300 i believe if you want to pm them let me know.

Exclamation FLAME! lol

"Use the search button" Reply of the year. I'm Mr. GD Search, I'm here to tell you I would much rather post & ask a question again and pray that someone answers it. How many people that post "use search button" really have to uses it? Arent these the ppl that read every new post everyday ANYWAY. Try it, it goes something like this. Read 30 different posts with 5-10pages of replys that are 90% trash because post ****** saying "bump", replys of useless smart *** comments and flames about search button. It would be different if this was a more localized forum, But if u havent noticed, its rather large. Some ppl dont have time to burn 3 hours just trying to piece together info.

Searth button does work... if u have alot of free time & like novals.


IRONY: This thread is turning into the ones described above.


*BUMP!!!* - ROFL!

sure....but i have used the search button SO much. i have read so many threads, on turbo and headers and intakes. we dont need anymore. but if u must.

rpw has the biggest gains, rrm is nice looking and good quality. rpw comes with dp though. and rrm does not, they said it didnt give gains in the top end to support spending the extra money and r and d on it. so to me i would only do rpw or rrm. kamikaze has had issues, ie falling of, hanging low (downpipe) leaks, crap like that. so for the extra money at least get RRM

i will be getting the RRM headers, RRM seems to have their **** together and i've never heard of anyone having any problems with RRM stuff. Why risk other brands when RRM basically focuses on our cars?
