if youre staying N/A and youre gonna build it, then yeah, youre gonna need a header before you get into the other stuff (cams, etc...) but if youre going turbo, dont waste your money.

I agree cause if you get a turbo than your gonna have to switch it anyway. But if not it helps those other mods he mentioned alot.

pretty much what they said:)

you won't necessarily be satisfied with that either, unless you're just looking for like 8-10 extra HP. if you really want power, look for some nitrous on ebay for cheap.

96 S14...The hotshot header I was using on my car along with a CAI/nice exhaust and no cat made a noticeable difference in upper end power...I think it's worth it, especially if you're not turboing, or not planning to for a while...You'll be satisfied with the I/H/E for a while I think, at least I know I was...

Edit: Mine is for sale, $230 shipped, used only 4k miles, very good condition... (for an s14 too), email [email protected] for pics

A header is not going to make much difference. Why don't you just invest in a good set of cams. Nick

574-240sx...How would you know if it would make a difference or not? According to your profile you're completely stock. Therefore, you're disseminating opinions based on no prior, first-hand experience. I've done both the header AND the cams....And I can honestly say that I felt more of an immediate difference in the header than I did with the cams....The header is well worth it if you're staying NA or if you're not planning on going turbo in the near future.

I have tunned may hondas and its not worth it. I have a hotshot header sitting in my room with Apex'i exhaust. I don't think I'm going to put it on (the header) because its not going to be worth it. I'm going turbo in a few months and picking up my second 240. I'm going to be nice, unlike you getting ****ty. Also I was just offering advice. You don't have to take advice. Nick

Unfortunately, this isn't a honda forum. Therefore, your honda-tuning prowess means nothing when talking about a 240sx and a header. True, it's "advice," but advice without sound evidence. As someone who's done BOTH, I say go for it! Sorry for acting like a ****, I just don't like when people say "no" or "yes" when they haven't actually done something.Marc

I have friends that have 240 and greddy and hotshot header and they aren't inpressed. I say go for whatever you want. It was just my opinion. Nick
