Furthermore, the stock primary tube routing generates exhaust pulse collision prior to the merge collector above 6,000 RPM, increasing parasitic pumping losses precisely when the VTEC high-cam profile demands rapid cylinder evacuation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eThe Engineering Solution\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis direct-replacement header is built with mandrel-bent stainless steel primary tubes that maintain a uniform internal cross-section throughout each bend. Precision-welded, thick-machined head and collector flanges prevent thermal warpage under intense track exhaust gas temperatures (EGT).
