Thread: tri -y headers

Keep in mind these all look like Knockoff "JDM" parts. I understand not everyone will want to invest 1500 dollars in a header. Hell I have a SSAC Knockoff on my daily. However if you are going for all out N/A performance I just don't see how these headers will be even close to one made by ASP.

I am not trying to detract from the original posters idea. It seems to be better than the SSAC I am just not sure where it will fall compared to the ASP.

- I know what the parts are but they still make power. People have made 200+WHP on a SSAC all day on a stock 2.0L bottom end VE. I have a ASP header on my car right now. I'm up to par with the majority of my parts, but this could be a side project to experiment with. If it's T304 steel, it will last. I have a 1.6L eBay header that I bought for my sentra like 6 years ago or something and it's still strong.

Friend of mine made 200whp with this header on his ITR b18c6. Built bottom end b20 -12.5 CR, AEM CAI, 60mm exhaust Nvidia + ecu tune. Stock head.

Btw. nice 6whp peak gain over SSAC.

wow never thought about something like this. good going here mercado, nice find. post some pics when you can, i'd like to see undercar fitment.

dam n for 65 bucks cant got wrong really,even as a guinea pig header to test....im really tempted to try it as i just got a welder!!!!1

someone you personally know..has dyn0ed the ssac then the asp header...and only got a 4 hp difference towards the asp...

WAOOOOOOOO puchoooo me lo imaginaba las mejorias en los # con el header ahora si q me interesa el negocito por un header de esos... Te estare llamando pronto jajajajaa me gustaria probar la dif de mi header 4-2-1 y ese tri-y en un SR20VE stock como el mio aver q ganancias hay.

I would love to try that tri-y header compared to my SSAC on a stock SR20VE like mine.

^My point exactly. I like my ASP as it is top notch, but would not like to spend $1500 for a 5 WHP gain for a better header. Especially if it's only on the top end.

I am not trying to argue but was the car retuned with the ASP header or was the SSAC tune deemed good enough? In my opinion the SSAC is a good header thats why I have on my daily. I wouldn't hesitate to spend 1500 to make 5 more HP on my "project" tho. I think with supporting mods the car will make more than 5 HP over a SSAC.

well then yea if its your project and your taking the approach your taking doing it right the first time....then you dont even have to defend your decision..but most of these people whoare running SSAC's are usually DD or Weekend Warrior'ing there **** and a 1500 price tag is kinda alot
