4g63 Headers

[britdog]

Okay everyone im looking at getting a nice pair of headers at a low cost. I found this DSM 1G/2G 4G63 TD05H-16G TURBO/CAHRGER MANIFOLD EXHAUST - eBay (item 160613265025 end time Aug-30-11 16:07:59 PDT)
on ebay and does anyone know if it will increase my performance?
And will this fit my stock turbo on my 97 spyder gst??

first off your car has a header not headers. my friend has the same one off eBay and i don't know if it helps performance but it doesn't seam to leak or anything.

yeah my bad for the pair idk why i said it, but ok cool im most likely going to get them

Dont,. It will break fast and has no performance gain.

Just purchase this one & call it a day:Forced Performance Turbochargers: FP DSM Race Manifold

It might help spool a little but nothing special. It will most likely crack after a couple months. I wouldnt bother with that but its your car and your money. Good luck.

I agree with 907, the fp one is awesome and is cast so it won't crack as fast as the ebay POS.

Not a header...it's a manifold

To the op +1 on the FP manifold. I'll be getting one sometime as well

FP manifold is where it's at. I love mine.

It actually is a header not trying to argue or anything but i would stay away from ebay manifolds for the most part, they are cheaper yes but they do tend to crack a lot easier

I wouldn't suggest to buy it, nor from Ebay.

You won't gain power with that one, not on a Stock Turbo.

It helps air flow But the stock turbo won't flow that much air to make the difference.

I would get what (907gs-t) post.

It get's better flow as well, and will do almost the same with the Ebay one on a Stock Turbo.

2g manifolds are not bad and sometimes 1g guys use them so I wouldn't recommend upgrading your manifold but if you are go with the forced performance one.

2nd generation dsm manifolds flow fine. The are more resistant to cracking than 1st generation dsm manifolds. They have been proven to be effective through the mid 300 wheel horsepower range. If your shooting for more than that you will either need to port it or buy the Forced Performance manifold if your sticking with a Mitsubishi flanged turbo.
