Alright, I am now a member of the CT headers club!!!! Picked up the car last night from the dealer. They only put 2 miles on it test driving. I was pleased.

Started the car - got out to take a look at my new mod. Very nice. Very high quality. Tapped the throttle. Slightly different sound, but so slight that only you and I would notice. No one at a light is going to think anything of it, but I like it just the same. STEALTH

Pulled out on to the main road, and let traffic get a ways a ahead of me and just hammered it in 2nd gear. There is improved acceleration at the low end. Car has a bit more pull, but DAMN once you hit VTEC is it SWEEEEEEEET. There is a nice sound with the CAI as well.

I have only put about 20 miles on the car, but am looking to get out a bit this weekend. So far these ROCK. A bit expensive, but worth it.

 

Hell yeah they rock! Congrats!

 

post the link where you order your headers from?

 

I got mine from my dealer and they did the install. Paid a bit more, but full warranty and no b/s when I go in for service. Actually, the sales staff came out to look at the car with my mods. Sorry no pics yet.

 

welcome to the club

if u need hosting of pics, send them my way...ScooterKin@fotki.com

 

The header defiantly wakes up the CAI!!

 

I am just waiting for lunch so I can take the car out for a ride.

 

I have heard you also will feel alot more of a difference once the FL weather gets cool.

 

oh good so I can really enjoy the headers a 4-5 days a year - ha ha ha

It is raining like a m-f outside. Might not be such a great day for a ride. Oh well.

 

hey how much did you pay for the headers + install at the dealer?

 

$1400 out the door

 

Did you go to Gettel Acura?.... They rock, Patrick is the man there

 

Yes I did. How do you know about them? They are a long way from you. Patrick ws very cool. I am actually going by on my way home. I forget to get the old exhaust parts - just in case.

 

Congrats on the headers man. Its threads like these that make me want to go out and buy em asap.

 

I purchase my header for $1110 plus 195 install at Goodson Acura in Irving Tx. No questions asked at dealer and very happy with the responsiveness of the car. The service manager even asked me when I was planning to supercharge the car. They are very open about bolt on mods.

 

I hate you.



















































J/K!
mine are on the way!

 

I get my car serviced there, the people at fountain acura here in Orlando suck donkey balls. So when I visit my parents who live in Bradenton, I get my car serviced. You think 160 miles is too far to drive for good service? LOL.

 

The headers are well worth it. I am going to sing that line like every other person on this site. The headers with the CAI totally change the car. Well worth it.

 

congrats

 

Thanks. Took the car on the highway this morning. BIG DIFFERENCE and one you hit VTEC - damn!

 

How substantial is the increase in the low-end acceleration?

jon

not that much of a differnce in low end power, it there but not noticeable, the REAL differnce is when the vtec opens up

 

Thanks for the info darrinb. I'm planning to get them put on next time I do an upgrade. I'm also going to get the Comptech Sways and Springs. Not sure on the Konis yet. Does anyone know if there are any instructions to modify the setup to be able to adjust the rear konis without having to remove the rear seat? I sent Jens a PM but no response.
