Kooks headers why so expensive

If we're talking honda, hi-tech makes a better one!

looks pretty, but obviously those guys don't know what the firing arrangement of a 180 degree inline 4 cylinder requires for pairing on a 4 into 2 into 1.

Meh, IDK. But these are run by the likes of Bisi (until he started using his own) and the fastest all motor hondas on the planet.



Bisimoto header.

those are 4 into 1's, complete different set of rules.

this is what one of my ventures does.

We pair our 4 cyl turbo manifolds, 4-1, 3-2 when making manifold for a divided housing... Looks like they did they same with all motor design. Why would the all motor header pairing be any different than a divided housing on a turbo?

[Grape]

pair 1 and 2 together and you will find power, period. our roughly 120 hp N/A inline 4's will make about 6 less with 1 and 4 paired together.

[Matt]

It depends on firing order, correct? What is the firing order of the engine you just posted.

[Grape]

1,2,4,3.......like all inline 180 degree 4's, only thing that is different now is that stupid new R1 thing.

[Matt]

1,3,4,2 is a honda inline 4 firing order... this is cars BTW, not bikes... not sure what the bikes are... and those headers posted above are for cars...

then 1 and 3 go together as they are 180 apart. which also makes those 4 into 1's correct, firing in a circle into the collector

[Matt]

So you are saying that 99% of manufacturers that produces honda headers are wrong.

[Matt]

if you had 2 cylinders that are paired right next to each other in the same side of the Y, it would create backpressure and lose power.

Maybe they are NOT made in China.

Mac headers fit like shit. Bkk decent I've had good luck with them. KOOKS quality is 2nd to none fit great work great for people that have nice cars and want nice parts on them.

Pypes and mac are for people that dont know!


I have sold every Brand i do know.

So I guess you've never seen anyone have to beat the shit out of a 1200 set of kooks headers that were supposed to bolt right up ?
