what kinda header should i use?

for the time being, my turbo will not be feeling boost. So i would like to know the pros and cons of the NA header. I have a EJ18, so a heaader for the EJ25 would fit. im looking for cost, performance, and any other pros and cons i need to know. ( like the Borlas cracking ) TWE, MRT, Brullen, all this i cant find on my own, maybe im looking in the wrong place. i need help.

Check out cobb. Pros, very good gains, comes with the cat section. Cons, cost.

Try this http://www.techworkseng.com/welcome.html http://www.mrtrally.com.au/performance/ Brullen I'm not sure about. Good luck. I have a gen 4 Borla header. I heard they solved the cracking problems, but we'll see. Also IMO I like the TWE headers the best, but they just cost so much

I'll put my $.02 up and tell you to get the borla!

Pro: Awesome sound, normally under $300 price range

Cons: Not the most power of the above stated...some have issues with CEL's....I haven't had one and I've had mine on for about 10k.

I think the cracking issue has been resolved...no problems with mine anyway....

cobb is nice but once you go turbo you can't use it. With the borla's you can I believe.

TWEs and borlas can also be used with a turbo- all that matters is the header ends in the stock location. Equall length headers will make your car sound more like an inline though.
