Default New Mugen Headers AP2 2.2L

Mugen header headers for AP2 2.2L 2004 2005 04 05 which ever way you want to call them. There are NOT the same that the original headers.

From mugen webpage :

F20C -> F22C engine tuning unlimited reply. As for that, private development.

Vis-a-vis F20C F22C where the aerodynamic volume displacement is expanded by stroke rise.
For infinity, that is development start of private [ekimani].
Pursuit of further power you aimed for the engine quality which it is easy to handle, repeated the dynamo test and decided execution and optimum layout.
By primary length and the fact that the gathering point conventional type [ekimani] from is modified (for F20C), from the low-speed limits to the medium speed, and the top end improvement of power and torque is carried out at the entire area.

I know that kingmotorsports have them in stock. I am curious to know if anyone has them installed. Any feedback will be greatly appreciated.

I will be getting one in the next couple of weeks.

The dyno graph you posted based on my contacts at king; is from an unmodified 2004 with exception of the header.
And the graph shows corrected numbers with a correction factor more consivertive than what is typically used in the US.

So when you do get it on you should see gains that are at least what is shown in the dyno graph picture.

When I get mine on the header will be coated with a Jet-hot application so my numbers may be different based on that application.

Isnt the J's header still "the best" for power for the s2k?

From what ive read, the mugen is best for mid and low range. Now i see that it does gain quite a bit from the graph but just going on what ive heard.

Lets see some numbers! (from actual owners!)

Please get a pre- and post-header dyno done if you can.

will do

but the pre will include the Mugen cooling mods with a AEM fuel pressure regulator adjusted to keep the A/F in the 13.5 range post cat (12.5 pre on wideband)

I will install the header and post the how the numbers changed with out adjusting the AEM.

And will also post how the numbers changed once the AEM is readjusted if necessary.

And then will post another one once Greddy Ultimate comes out with a update that allows me to pick up the water temp so I can get the A/F control to work properly.

FYI I do have a stock base line dyno for a complete comparison.

Mod list
Old picture does not show the Volk GT-7

When saying "the best" there a few things you need to consider ?

- Is best = cheaper ?
- Are you going to use it on a 2.0L or a 2.2L ?
- What is more important midrange or topend ?
- What the car tune after the header was installed ?

since we're doing a group buy on the Mugen hardtop right now, is there any interest in a GB on the Mugen 2.2L header as well?
