Am I mistaken, or does this header look similar to a Mugen design???

btw, it looks real good, I would definitely be interested if the numbers are right...

That looks amazing. Can't wait for the dyno plot. Too bad I aleady have a Toda header. If this has more gains, I could be persuaded to ditch the Toda.

Do you have baselines for the car you plan on using for the dyno testing?

If this header hasn't been dyno tested, then this thread is extremely pre-mature. I think it was Spugen that developed several prototypes, and none of them made power, so they scrapped the project. If this header doesn't deliver any gains, then the price will be way too high. There are better, cheaper ways to reduce weight.

I saw them mandrel bend things on TV on speedvision and they did have a piece that went inside the tubing to maintain the internal diameter of the pipe.
