Another header option for TSX
It looks like copied version of DC but in stainless and lifetime warranty against defects. Who wants to give it a try?

Only problem is, it's not carb exempt (sucks for CA)

OBX is known to blatantly rip off the designs of other header mfgs. Therefore, the performance will be good b/c they are near exact copies of dyno tested and proven designs. Of course, they're a lot cheaper due to not having to fund their own R&D and making their products overseas.

Could you be more specific? I had the J30 Header for the V6 Accord and never had any problems.

Well, if they ripped off DC Sports' design, then I assume that their header would fall apart as well since it's unlikely they did any further R&D.

cracking; stud holes were misaligned, too small, o2 sensor hole in bad position so it would hit other parts of the car.

sauceman, who is slowly thinking of a "big breather" upgrade.

Alrite here are the pics, might not be that good but i think it'll do.One of the reasons i chose this was the fact that it's stainless steel and it doesn't cost half as much as comptech headers.Haha sorry, I'm poor.
