Well, since you're the resident header guru now, you should also know that the Hytech headers require you to remove your A/C and PS pumps... not very likely for a daily driver, especially not one driven by the lovely 2000 LoW reD Si.

Now that I got that out of the way, I did a Google search out of curiousity, and I found the article you're jacking all your "information" from:

http://www.tprmag.com/issue/10/10_b16_headers.shtml

Only slightly less obvious than Super Street... I don't even have to dish any more dirt here; the damage is pretty much self-inflicted

Hahaha... like I said, if you know, you know. If not, it's awfully hard to pretend.

Most Hytech headers are developed for drag/track use, and DO require you to remove your A/C and PS. But, since HyTech products are almost all custom jobs, some are made to accomodate the pumps, though they probably won't perform as well as the numbers you see in the side-by-side tests.

I'm pretty sure this is the header you're thinking of... now do you see?

^ either way you look at it you're venturing into areas you have no clue about.. you just keep on loveing greddy crap.

edit: that and, you're a fool if you can't tell that that header isn't made for a streetable b-series.. if it is even for a b-series.

S**t. My bad. That's a HeaderTech, not a HyTech.

Hahaha... you're right, I have no clue what I'm talking about, while you are clearly Jesus on a power trip.

That said, you still don't realize that the way HyTech gets those shiny looking power gains is without PS or A/C.

And I said so myself, it's a DRAG header... when was the last time you drove a strip car to the mall?

For starters, I don't own a Greddy "piece," which you have obviously never had any experience with.

And second of all, HyTech sure as f**k doesn't make turbo manifolds for an RB26DETT.
