I've got 4-1 Cusco header on my BT engine ; along with custom made stainless steel 60mm pipes & HKS Dragger exhaust muffler I've notice a big enhancement in traction specially above 4500 rpm till 8200 rpm . you may notice a little weakness at low rpm ; i.e. 1K ~ 3 K ; but with proper head gasket ( I'm using 0.5mm TRD head gasket & HKS mushroom intake ) this weakness disappears ; you'll notice an extra 10~15 HP ( estimated ) with this setup. I wasn’t expect such power from only 4-1 header ; but the result was exceeding my expectations specially on high weight car like my ae92 ( 1200 kg with half fuel tank )!!! My Cusco 4-1 Header originally came from 4AGZ engine ; I have only modified the 1st & 4thheader bolts places ; very easy with proper tools ; the good news is 2nd & 3rd bolts are the same between the two engines . For comparing header diameter ; BT OEM header came with 39mm Diameter & Cusco header came with 43 mm diameter . for extra air flow ; you can polish the Block exhaust outlets ; and open your throttle case to free air ( my next step ) the 4-1 Cusco header rated in Japan for 500~800 $ ; I think 540$ is high price for used item . all the best . |

the powerball is regarded quite highly in japan... according to ae-my garage car wont idle as smooth unless if you heatwrap it, it gives good mid-range, but its more suited for big cams, with a total fuel remap.. i guess that applies to all good free flowing extractors... with all 4-1 exhaust you're most likely going to suffer a bit below 3000rpm, definitely felt it with the hks racing header |

it interesting to see the 1 and 2 piping curved so far to the right looking at it from the front... maybe to maintain the torque??? since other manifolds are pretty much all curved straight down...

will be to even up the lengths as the other pair come out and over making them longer if they didn't do that curve |
