are these headeres any good?will it fit the 3.0 cl since the accord V6 has basically the same engine? If they do work would they fit correctly and bends? and how much would it run me to install if they have to do custom fitting?

Headers

 

yeah with a slight bent on the back down pipe..

 

Are they any good? difference in hp with these? not trying to compare to comptech's but thats just to expensive for headers.

 

haven't seen anybody with these headers before, but they're sure is shinny. and cheap.

 

Don't get the megan, people on here have had problems with the 3.0 headers for megan, go with ssautochrome

 

Megan Racing, i think would be better than the OBX.

 

what kinda problems?

 

ssautochrome says that they're already bent for a perfect fit, but they're NOT, so you'll have to take it somehwere to have it bent, it'll take them like 5 seconds and they did it for free for me. they made a great difference too, i would never be able to burn rubber from a stop, but now i can
Also, before you install them, go out and get 6 stainless steel bolts/washers and LOCKING nuts, it will make the install so much easier. oh and you might need some liquid wrench rust penetrant and a propane torch to get the 3 bolts off the cat too

 

u have to torch the bolts off the cat? are you serious? I haven't work on my exhaust system for the CL yet....but usually do these kinda thing on other peoples car i just WD-40 and un-bolt it.

 

WD-40 works just fine

ssautochromes do fit without bending issues, i have them, along with wilp and a few others with no bending issues if it comes short slightly at the bottem end that attaches to the cat have a friend sit behind your car and use his leg to push the muffler back just a little bit it fits perfect.

note this is a 2 man job must...your gonna need someone to either tighten the nuts or hold the bolt straight and firm up top with a wrench / extension.

tools you will need

wrench / wrench extension / all sockets that fit / strong arms

 

this is why you should get locking nuts.

I tried WD-40 but it didnt work, it depends on how badly rusted the 3 bolts are, and the ssautochrome headers fit for me at first but i had to push the cat all the way to the driver side cause the studs and holes didnt line up, and then the cat was rattling SOO bad against the bottom of the car

 

how ya like the megan headers?

 

go in with a hammer / metal pipe and just hammer the heat shield so theres no contact rattle gone

 

368$ not bad. Thats the price on thier site could it get anybetter?

 

get stone racing headers, no bending at all, perfect fit

 

haven't seen those on ebay for a while

 

the ssautochrome headers (stone racing) ones for the 03 cl type s 6 speed fit perfect. i had them on prescious and now they are on my tl-s... gobbs of torque.. but i had them on prescious for almost 2 years and never had a problem with them.

 

try ssautochrome.com

edit... wilp beat me to it...ya they are great

 

i did they are 368$$

 

well yea i guess if it saves you some booty.. i was jsut tryin something new when i got mine no one had them on the 3.0cl, so i begged and lied to the wife and got some and crossed my fingers that they fit and they did, so i really didnt lie about it giving me better gas milage. :giggle: which is what i told the old lady.. and i also told her that about the sri.


p.s. it aint my fault is you lie to your old lady and get your head whooped. just thought id get that out there.

 

i got mine for like 175 or 200ish shipped
