Hey guys, i have a 4 tec 3.3 and i have already put on a buku pipe and a motor saver filter, and now i want a new header, what is ia good header for the 4 tec? Also i have heard of guys running an ofna .26 carb on there 3.3's for better power, is this true? i have 2 ofna .26's i can use for the carb.

im not to sure abt that statement, because since a .26 is by far larger than what your 4-tec has it requires more air. so the air/fuel ratio would be off. but that is wha i wud say. i wudden try it.

i dont know for a fact because i cannot remember where i saw it, but i thought that is what was stated, but then again because i cannot find it again it might just be something that i misunderstood

Since you have the carb, why not just try it?
