Pictures of my NEW Kamakaze type R header!

[Rboosted717]

OMG, this beast is a beauty! I got the type R header with 2.5" piping, 2.5" collector, and a sphere. I asked for a ceramic, however it appears to be SS. Oh well, at least I didn't pay for the SS! Anyways, here are the pictures! Tell me what you think...

Wow, looks nice but what's that tongue looking thing on the collector? When are you going back to test this header at dynospot?

[Rboosted717]

The thing sticking out of the collector is called a sphere. The Kamakaze engineers told me that it will help reduce turbulance in the header, allowing more flow. Kinda of a odd piece huh!
BTW-I'm going back to dynospot later this month. My cars been gone for the past 2weeks getting some stuff done. I hope to get it back Fri, or Sat. Or maybe next week sometime. I still have to order the BTC. So hopfully I will get it all done ASAP. Not to mention I still have to figure out a way to get this monster header on my car!

Wow..That's a nice piece!!! Looks much much mucchhhh better than my DC (da crap) Sports header.

[Rboosted717]

Its cool, I was about to get a DC or Comptech header, however after seeing the price, and performance gain, I had to get it. Now I just have to pray I can gain whp with it by keeping my small ass exhaust. If I get no whp gain, I will go to Thermal 3"! (Maybe)

That isn't stainless, it's thermal coated and then polished.

Mine didn't have that sphere thing. Bummer.

"kamikaze engineers"

heh. only the finest out here in corona.

Yeah, I had no idea about the sphere thing. When I called Kamakaze to order the header, they gave me a list of options I want. I just asked for the best header I can get for my car. So they told me to get that header with the sphere. I'm kinda worried about adapting it to my current exhaust setup. I currently have a high flow cat (which I replacing with a test pipe), and a Top Fuel exhaust system. I will probally get a test pipe with a 2.5" inlet, and a 2.25" outlet.
