4-2-1 Header

[Trampisjr]

Hey guys, I was looking for a 4-2-1 header for my 1999, non turbo car.
I was wondering if you guys can tell me what you think of this one.

95-99 Mitsubishi Eclipse 2.0L Non -Turbo 4-2-1 Stainless Header

Any info will be great. Im not to knowledgeable about the inter-workings of a car but am trying to learn.
Dont get me wrong, I love to go turbo...but money wise I just cant afford it.

Thanks

I'm not exactly familair with the NA performance brands, however, Megan Racing is pretty solid with their work. It's a bit more but still under $200 and comes with a warranty.

Megan Racing

If you search around you may be able to find it cheaper than the actual manufactures site.

Wouldn't buy it considering they don't even know what they're selling. Pic is a 4-1 header. If the companies can't use the right image or get the product they're selling right, they never get my business.

where? i'd like to see that if you don't mind.

Yeah the pic looks like a 4-1 but I would take it over the megan racing due to the fact that the cheaper one has a flange and gasket. I have a megan racing and it leaks because you can't put a gasket in it. I'm going to cut it and weld a flange on. The cheaper one has a nice design, not full of bends.

is the connection the ball ones with 2 bolts and springs?

if so...i have a set of 4-2-1 headers with the same connection. it's such a dumb connection....i'm doing some work in the spring and cutting this off and welding flanges onto it.

I bought the BBP 4-1 header from racing guys on ebay. Its basically a knock off of the one Greddy makes, it has the flange with gaskets. I have had mine on for about a year so far without any issues, and it fits perfect. I would recomend it if your looking for a cheap header.

I did the same thing. I bought a header from Tuning Pros (Store on Ebay) pretty cheap. Only I am waiting for mine to arrive at the house. It is also a 4-1 header. Here is the link if you want to see!

you can get a header off of ebay just like that style for under 60 dollars shipped.

that pic is defantly a 4-1

heres a pic of what a 4-2-1 looks like94-97 ACCORD 4 CYL ENGINE HEADER EXHUAST MANIFOLD 4-2-1 - eBay (item 290515182078 end time Jan-21-11 21:21:26 PST)

that pic is for a honda but you can see the difference in pipping how it goes 4-2-1 compared to the site you provided.

and be ware of ebay when they say 4-2-1 what the mean is 4-1 in 2 pieces stating it was a 4-2-1.

Yeah its 4-1 and the top half slides in the bottom half and just two bolts hold it together. It seems so poorly designed. I tried every kind of gasket or RTV.. nothing holds up. So cut it and flange it.
