i heard 4-1 headers have lower ground clearance but can result in higher HP gains. opinions? experience?

he means weve talked about it here quite a few times. do a search on the forum. as for the ground clearance, a well made one should have offset tubing, making it about the same as a 4-2-1.

4-1 takes the exhaust from all four cylinders and combines it right into one. 4-2-1 takes the four, puts it into two, then puts it into one

I personally would go with the 4-2-1 header.
