I'm pretty interested to see what kind of #'s this header will be making compared to the comptech. And as was stated earlier in this thread they're way overdue for some good competition. I mean I can get a set of headers for the 4.3L in my truck for as cheap as $150and up lol.

So yes there is more of a demand for aftermarket parts on a 10-15K car than a 30K car
and keeping in mind the number of 98+accords out there

The members on V6performance.net are also interested in these headers. I've let them know that Excelerate is doing a GB here.

CL/TL headers are on their way. I am taking pre-orders because these headers are selling quickly. Anyone who wants one just send payment. I have 3 coming and they are first come, first serve and I am putting in another order with DC Sports so I need a count of how many more I need. If you want one just send payment to assure you get a header. DC Sports is already back-ordered so the sooner I get payment the sooner I can order.

Excelerate - When you call them to order again ask them why they didn't make these compatable with the 6spd.

Thanks

It's still stupid... They should just make 6spd headers 'cause 6spd header will fit the automatics too...

CT only makes 6spd headers now (which fits both 6spd and auto CL's)...
