current setup is fuji exhaust and stock intake with k&n drop in filter. adding the header gave some needed torque down low. plus is the stock looking heatshield. my car was previously done up with j's intake, fuji header, and fuji exhaust with vafc but all that was sold after i got a referee ticket for emissions violations. once chp saw the bluish gold tint of the fuji header i knew that was it. that was almost 2 years ago and some points dropped off so got the mod bug again. fuji header and fuji exhaust gave topend power but not really any increase in torque even after tuning. dynocharts for local folks with mugen header really shows the fat increase at midened after tuning compared to my fuji setup so know this is a good combo with the fuji. for mugen headers.

 

Hmm I wonder how well the mugen headers will work with the hks exhaust with test pipe? Well either way you cant go wrong with mugen.

 

Rick's header produces the same gains as the Mugen, also includes the heatshield and is a much better price.

 

go Ricks!

 

got mine used at really cheap price. no way i'm paying full price for a new one so if ricks gives same results at lesser price then go ricks

 

I wouldn't bother with the Mugen unless you are going the full Mugen hog including ECU or you pick one up cheap.

 

Mugen parts work well with Mugen parts...

you should get some nice mid hp, but i woul opt for the J's header or get the Fuji and keep it the same...

 

Didn't the Mugen header actually LOSE power on S/C S2Ks?

Ah well, whatever the case, the Mugen header still rocks on NA S2Ks...

 

how do u know it doesn't work well with other parts? sorry but similar set up as mine dynoed 210(dynojet) after tuning. also know another member that lost hp with mugen header and mugen exhaust before vafc tuning. did have fuji header and exhaust and didn't do anything midend but lots of topend though. i know this because bay area folks like to dyno and tune immediately after getting i/h/e. btw j's intake and mugen intakes don't do jack at dynos. post is just an fyi to confirm that mugen header DOES give midend gains which are butt and dynoproven

 

never said it WON'T work well with other parts, just said Mugen parts work well with mugen parts
