does anyone know where i can get headers installed in the dc metro area, ive had them for a month trying to get them installed at the acura dealership... no luck

 

I too was looking for a place to get my header installed. I decided to just go ahead with Vertex Motorsports in VA. Even though I'm an hour away. They have experience in dealing with TL's and CL's, so I decided on that as the major factor. Their prices aren't bad, but you could probably get a better deal elsewhere, but I like the reassurance of them having worked on TL's before. I called them up today and set up an appointment for tomorrow. I don't know who I talked to, but he was a really nice guy, even knew about people getting referred by this forum. Said he had installed about 4 headers already, and they all worked out fine. I got quoted around $240 for it. I'll pay that price knowing that they know what they're doing. And plus the fact that I called today (Monday), and will take it in for work tomorrow at 12 noon as soon as they open! I couldn't resist!! So it might be the best bet for you too!

Call Pohanka Acura in Chantilly, VA and ask for Jerry Soriano. They should be able to install the headers for just about $200.

 

go to pohonka and talk to jerry soriano, he did mine on tuesday for 175 or so. it took about 3 1/2 hours, he said he wanted to let the car cool down so it doesnt burn the mechanic while he was working on it. it tooke about 1 1/2 to do the install. so all in all it wasnt that bad. as far as the headers go, must do, the car really pulls in vtec range. transition from 1st to 2nd really barks the tires now and then just keeps on pulling, no significant sound increase, i have cai so i can tell the diff. so all in all, im pleased with my 500 buck header install, 340 for obx headers and 170 install.

 

hell do it yourself...
