Come on guys i thought surely someone out there knows whether cast iron headers or a good set of mandrel bent pipes will give me the best results on a 186 with a ton of work done to it .

a mandril bent system will give better flow than the standard bent units as they keep the same dia through the bends, use this with a sport type muffler with good flow and you should feel it. ask for a muffler that wont `bark` to loud they sound crap.

The original 186S headers are pretty good.

VK 12 port extractors is the best factory exhaust on a holden 6 though.


If nissan motorsport is nismo, then doesn't that make honda motorsport Homo?

Depends what you are using it for. 186S headers work just as well for street use. And the 73 XU-1 extractors are good too, probably better than VK, and they wont crack like VK ones.

Also the small matter that VK ones wont fit on a 186 (9 port head) unless you do a blue/black head swap.

What you need is a set of tuned length mandrel bent extractors cant get much better with a matching high flow exaust unless you want them ceramic coated. Stainless last longer with unleaded.
