well these are a little cheeper check them out

don't get OBX headers, they will crack, even used Comptech headers are a better value.

 

The only other headers that are recommended, other than comptechs, are the xs power headers. Oh, and maybe the DCs. You have to do a little searching here on the forums to see where you can get the XS headers, cause I don't think they sell them on ebay anymore. And the DCs you can get from excellerate in the blackmarket.

 

^ XS=SSautochrome...

those F'ers; I can't believe XS reduced the price to $88! I need to go ahead an pick me up a spare set...

 

go for xs....

xs-power.com $97 shipped.

obx crack and are known for fitment issues....plus they are almost 3 times as expensive. might as well get three sets of the xs ones.

 

Yeah IF ANYONE IS LOOKING FOR HEADERS...........

Your 2 BEST CHOICES ARE:

Comptech
XS
You would be well to ignore any others at this point.

And yes it's cool the headers are only $88 now. That's insane!
However now I'll caution that at this price, quality may have suffered. I'd be VERY interested to hear feedback from anyone that has gotten the cheaper versions to see if they are the same. please post it not here, but in the XS header experience thread.

 

There is another set on another page of theirs (on the Honda accord version) that cost $368...

And then later on, there is another one for $110...

 

I TOTALLY agree with fuzzy!!!!!!!!!!...you get what you pay for.....

 

Yeah thats what I thought too. Or maybe the price drop is due to no ebay fees..?

 

Well...I did it guyz...I said screw it...and ordered DC Sports Headers from Josh at Excelerate...$368 shipped...they're ceramic headers...and the stainless was alot more expensive...Josh estimated gains of about 25 hp...maybe 30...so..with my AEM cai..and the 3 UR pulleys and the DC Sports headers...I should be a little over 300hp....does this sound realistic???

 

Yea it sounds realistix, especially with a 6spd. But it wont be wheel horsepower.

 

Correct Maying2001....I realize it wont be wheel hp.....however my CL-S is an auto...

 

Hoping for the best in terms of quality. I ordered a set last week for 88, planning on getting 12.9 grade bolts and all 5 acura gaskets. I should have it installed within two weeks, I ll post my experience.



In the correct forum of course
