Got my 1st Type-S with I/H/E in VTEC demo today!
Went to a small meet in Northern Virginia today and all I can say is NOW I SEEWHAT YOU GUYS WITH HEADERS HAVE BEEN TALKING ABOUT! One member, NOVAwhite typeS had to go and absolutely nailed it down the park road. That thing sounded like a V-12 Ferrari on steriods. I don't see how an NSX could be much faster or sound much better than that. I have headers on order and after today I'm totally convinced that was a good move. Thanks NOVA for showing me what our 3.2's can do.

Sounds like a good meet then. We can pull around two dozen CL/TL guys at a MD/DC/VA meet, but this weekend didn't work for a lot of us. :-\

It was probably the CAI you heard. Headers do not make any significant changes in the way the car sounds.

Usually a week or two after install you should retorque them. That is hopefully all you need to do.
