You're paying for performance IMO. Spoon rocks.

no, you are paying 50% for performance, and 50% for the privlage to have "SPoon" stamped somewhere on the product. Why do Nike shoes cost more then Pro Wings?

So, spending $1600 on a header is going to make you more noticeable faster than someone who spend $400 on a header? I think the difference is insignificant! Yikes, thats all I can say. Have you seen how much Toda stuff is?

Was I comparing the 2? Toda does make headers to the tune of $960 for the B16.

lol, reading ownz me.

"insignificant"

BTW:





This competition exhaust manifold is developed based on data acquired from competition and continual engine dyno bench testing. It is designed to extract every bit of horsepower from a modified normally aspirated engine with attention paid to improving power all over the powerband. Constructed entirely from stainless steel for long term durability, these headers are hand built at the TODA factory by the same team that builds the TODA Formula 3 and Formula 4 racing exhaust manifolds, therefore available quantities are low and you will not find one on every other car out there. Highly recommended for engines already equipped with TODA Spec B and Spec C camshafts.

The TODA exhaust manifold has excellent ground clearance compared to other JDM exhaust manifolds.

Price: $980

Spoon OWNZ and in most cases you get what you pay for but in this scene there is the fact of paying for the option to have a brand name posted somewhere on the product but welcome to the business world

I've never owned any Spoon parts before so I don't know how they perform. All I know is the name and what they do.
