Type R or Tanabe

Omg, the burnt bluish heat is so much nicer than than the polish finishing... how to do that kind of effect?

i'm making my decision based on d price ler..coz usually JASMA/JDM headers like d Tanabe can command up RM1K if its in pristine condition..n d EK9 421 ard RM500 max...so,whc 1 wud u choose now?

Actually.. you'll get it once you heat it to the extreme (like constantly revving it to the max.. the only catch is if you polish it properly, then the bluish will come out nicely as well, not in patches, that is.)

I also think the oil fumes from the dipstick hole, and other sources contribute as well.. but out of a few mugen headers here.. only mine turned bluish like that.. (O_o) the rest also got spots, but not as even as mine..

Anyway.. some people think it looks like titanium.. (too bad it isn't, though.. :P)

FYI, the header is a B18C mugen header, and there's the B18C etching & number on the label underneath both jasma tags.

Dunno what's the difference between the B16A & B18C version though..apart from the missing letter etching.... hattech, any clues?

the primary n the collector is different.
 
hmm different as in sizing? I thought the Mugen B16A primaries looked...kinda small... but my friend says its same, and implied that I was blind.. ROFL!.. no wonder the mugen extractor I bought was not as cheap.... he did say it was a bit expensive when I bought it... (O_o)

Thanks hattech.. now I can go for yamcha with him tommorow and argue about it.. ROFL!

Then can take a vernier and measure too.. :P
