Default Stock header vs Megan header

I know there are other better headers than the Megan, but I was just curious to how much more better the Megan header is to our stock header? Will there be only a tiny power difference if I want to get the Megan? Or should I just stick with my stock header? Are they both the same size dimensions too? I plan to get a VAFC2 tuned, but dunno if I should just stick with my stock header or not before I tune.

Nobody has done a real dyno on a Megan header. It SHOULD make more power than stock though. Do a proper before and after dyno

Technically, its China.

Either way, may want to move this thread to another forum section. May not get the answers you want to hear here.

I got some Megans, JDM or not they sure saved me a couple of pounds. They are 2" in 2.5"out. Several expensive headers use the same, so in theory what the real difference?
I had DC before, i did say before. with Megs the car felt better.
I cant prove anyting with out a dyno but i noticed a some what difference 5-8k rpm.
Theyre from Cali, that does this equal to?
-dont have to wait several months to get `em
-if they break or what ever u can B****H at someone
-their a new company, who know in couple of months everyone might be wanting them.
-~~$330~~ The best part!
a buddy of mine, with a ecu got and TBI got ~10hp with them.
i`ll try to ask him for the dyno chart.
Best of Luck...
