Now looking at your extractor, the 2 to 1 joint before the flexible bellow, does not look smooth/straight. A bit bent at an angle......:smokin:
If you look at the stock unit, there's a kink after the flexible joint. I think the bend which you are referring to is to avoid that.

Your engine bay has a lots of space between the header and the radiator fan. Can put one of those fancy extractors with long runners. Mine doesnt have such space


Mine is even worse haha had to grind off the fan bracket a bit to clear the runners

Interesting that stock 4G93 headers are actually 4-2-1 configuration. I thought most manufacturers will use a short 4-1 header to save cost.
even 4g92 sohc also stock came with 4-2-1.... but with shorter runner....and casted

Means it is still not as effective as an aftermarket 4-2-1 with longer runners?

I heard Wira SE comes with 4-2-1 as well but I think it is differently designed compared to what I installed.

If you look at stock exhaust, 2 to 1 start at the curve in front on the engine. Aftermarket joins at under the engine near the flexible bellow....:driver:

Yeah. But why stock ones join so early? Save costs again?

Does this kind of joining early setup offer any advantage over aftermarket? Or aftermarket is totally better in every aspect?

Stock as far as I know is tuned to be average in everything, power, consumption etc. etc.....you would have heard people complain loosing low end, gain high end and all those stuff, right?

Yes I have. But after installing my 4-2-1 extractor, I can say that I felt no losses anywhere. Is better than stock in every aspect so far. There is a very slight increase in exhaust sound but I am okay with that.

If aiming for top end power, 4-1 should be better. :biggrin:

There is a product called "magic stain" made by Yoshimura. it is 10x lesser effort than autosol. I highly recommend this.
