What the

HELL!

I just ordered a set of CompTech headers from Acura of Bellvue.
$1k shipped to me.
I know the wife will be pissed but you only live once right ?!?

So can I even attempt to install these myself ??

I've done headers on a FWD 4 banger before but I dunno
about getting the pipes on the backside of this motor.

I'm also debating getting them ceramic coated.

Can't wait for that extra surge above 5k !!

Yeah, if I could do it in a day & just needed ramps, impact wrench, torque wrench etc. & I just end up with some busted knuckles I think I'll try it

BUT if it's more involved than that, maybe $200-300 for an install?
I need to call the dealer & see if they will do it.

Anyone know if we have 1 or 2 O2 sensors ??
I guess I should order a Helms manual !
