Ok, so I bought a header a while back for my RS, and it is a 4 pipe into 1. Now I have been researching and noticed that most people get 4 to 2 to 1 header. What are the differences? Like I know about the difference on V8's between long and short tube headers. Is this like the same concept?

not so much

longtubes give more overall power tq and bottom end..shorties are bascally just better then stock..longtubes are a PAIN to install

4-1 gives more top end
4-2-1 gives more all around power

but the power increase is hardly noticeable..

anything you do to these cars minus nitrious and boost is hardly noticeable

Drives: 1996 Talon AWD. Built, but no longer drives: 1997 mitsubishi eclipse RS; 1990 Talon AWD; 1995 Talon AWD, 1997 Talon AWD. Seems like a pattern
yep. 420a cars aren't like 4g63 cars. you can't toss $100 at them and expect another 15hp
