OK i am negotiating atrade with several peopel right now for a Rb header. i just went to the Rb website and realized is doesnt suggest using ti with EFI cars. Why? Will putting headers on my car have a negative effect? So confused.

I figured it out, i was looking at the streetable and i need the 6 port road race header. Theyre both in the 2nd gen section.
Thanks anyway, i just gotta specify which one im tryna trade for now. Still curious though as to what the difference is. I see the obvious desing difference but theyre both collected headers.

What are you talking about? The road race header is NOT collected, it is for a true dual exhaust system.

I use the streetable collected header on my EFI system as do plenty of people.

^^^Your right, the pic doesnt clearly show that it is seperate at the flange. But still wondering why a collected header would be recommended for carbed setups.

No idea why they say that. Like I said, tons of people, including myself, use the collected header with the stock EFI.

Exhaust systems really have no dependency on your fuel delivery, whether fuel injection or carberation.
This is why it isn't explicitly stated on the Racing Beat website.
