TiTek header

Any one heard of this?

I just saw it

TiTek Stainless Steel header



"TiTek Innovations exhaust manifold for the RX-8 is made of SUS304 stainless steel, precision mandrel-bend to enhance exhaust gas flow, and will directly bolt on without any modifications. TiTek Innovations exhaust manifolds includes all necessary hardware (gaskets, nuts, bolts) for an easy installation. "

looks like we have another header option.

it looks very similar to Fluids headers, cause of the weld at the bend.

Nothing new....it is very similar

Exotic speed on the other hand would be different they have thicker piping than the one we had and this Titek.

Found the link... My bad, it said "Compare to Exoticspeed"

It says the whole thing is designed and built by them in New Hampshire.

i installed the boostBrothers headers on my buddys 8 yesterday, but after installing it we heard ia rattling noise, we couldnt find where was it coming from so we end up installing the oem back. BTW I have the obx headers on my 8 for more than 8 months and never had any issues.

That's cool.... I wonder what the rattling was...

Personally, I'm just not gonna bother with a header. Too much money, not enough gain...

Well, that and a buddy of mine donated some misc. turbo parts to me. So I think I will be heading in that direction.

yeah i had the same "rattling " come from my obx header when i installed it.. i've checked all the bolts and so forth cant find anything... when it gets warmer i'll look again I'm not worried yet cuz its my summer toy btw tho it does run perfect still just a light rattle when its idling but not under any rpm or even at WOT
