What does the Comptech headers come with brand new?

Guys I need your help I purchased some used Comptech headers and they only came with the 3 pipes the 2 that bolt on to the exhaust manifold and the bottom that bolt on to the catalytic converter. My question is do they come with gaskets, screws, anything except the 3 pipes. I already bought 2 new header gaskets from Acura so those I don't need. Can anybody help cause I don't want to install incorrectly most likely will be doing it myself and other members of the board.

They should have included the O rings and the bolts!!! I think you can use the old O rings (metal ones) from your old exhaust, but the bolts are way different. Here is a link to the PDF from the Comptech website. If the link doesnt work, just go to www.comptechusa.com and click on the installation link. Then go to the bottom and click on the Accord V6 Headers link!!

AztecRol you are the man thanks bro nice to have ya back after M I A on us


I will ask Webtoker if he still has any of the parts seems like it needs.

1) 10 mm x 32 mm bolts 6 of them
2) 10 mm lock nuts 6 of them also
3) 10 mm washers 12 count
4) 2 1/4" compression gaskets 3 of these

Does anybody know which of these can be re-used from the stock header or do I need to purchase new.

Get some new gaskets...

As for the other stuff, it depends...

IMO, the nuts might be worth getting.

(I'd just get the whole set of parts, but I'm a weenie and have been tortured -- in the past -- by picking up a few parts short and was sorry..)

I agree, hit the auto parts store and get new hardware, then you're safe.. YMMV
