Skunk2’s Alpha Series Header utilizes our race-proven designs in a more affordable and accessible to everyday enthusiasts. Skunk2 has been designing custom headers for its drag racing, road racing, and endurance cars for years, and is now offering this same technology to consumers. Patterned after our already popular and dyno-proven MegaPower Headers, which have been used by leading, competitive race teams for years, Skunk2’s Alpha Series Header employs many of the same design characteristics and technology.
K-Swap Alpha Headers are compatible with K-series engines in chassis ranging from the ’88-’91 Civic, ’92-’95 Civic, ’96-’00 Civic, ’90-’93 Integra, and ’94-’01 Integra. Fitment is second-to-none. Unlike competitors’ headers, Skunk2’s K-Swap Alpha Header does not require the front cross-member to be cut or modified, and is compatible with most swaps featuring Hasport engine mounts or comparable mount kits.
Skunk2’s Alpha Header is designed and engineered to maximize exhaust flow and increase both horsepower and torque throughout the powerband. The unique design is the result of more than a decade of racing experience coupled with computerized modeling and extensive dyno testing. Each Skunk2 Alpha Header features equal-length, sequentially paired, stepped primaries and a 4-2-1 tri-Y design that terminates into a 2.5-inch collector. These features, paired with Skunk2’s unique design specs, provide an extremely broad powerband that’s applicable to a wide range of engine sizes and configurations. Alpha Headers also feature the smallest possible primary tubes required to achieve optimum overall and peak power. By minimizing the primary tubes’ diameter, Skunk2 is able to maintain the highest possible exhaust gas speed throughout the header, which improves mid-range power and throttle response significantly. Skunk2’s Alpha Header provides the perfect combination of top-end power without sacrificing mid-range power or throttle response.
