Sparks Racing Header Test
Well, my dyno mule that i used in my Header Test Pt1 is out of town right now, so i couldnt use it to test it to see how it would stack up against the RMF, SMSP, Hytech, ANR etc.
But heres what i did, STR8DRIFT was kind enough to let me borrow his 1995 EG coupe with a Civic Type-R motor. The motor is BONE STOCK
My tuner wasnt able to make it so THERE WAS NO TUNING DONE ON THE MOTOR and the wideband was run over by a customer so A/F couldnt be logged :thumbdown:
Anyways, all i did was do 2 pulls with the STOCK CAST MANIFOLD (NOT JDM) vs SPARKS header to see the difference. the results speak for themselves. there is MORE POWER TO BE HAD
This is just a simple bolt on and go, no tuning, and obviously no a/f. so i feel bad posting this , but there was pressure on me to produce something so heres what i came up with. I should have my JDM ITR Mule back this week, I might test in on a nother motor i know locally thats built.

Cliff notes
BOLT ON 5whp and 3 TQ WITH NO TUNING, pretty impressive on a 1.6l. This could easily see 7-10whp once i get my tuner over here to iron out vtecI use Uberdata and my tuner and his software had prior engagements, so this is kinda half assed which i usually dont do.
PLEASE NO BASHING, I WILL BE MUCH MORE THOUROUGH WHEN MY 1.8l is available. just salivate on this for a min
BIG THANKS TO CHARLES AT MAINSTREAM PERFORMANCE FOR LETTING ME USE HIS DYNO. if you are in the area , dont hesitate to call 678-567-9384 to schedule an appt to tune
