Header?

Curious if any one has tried a skunk2 header how was the install and overall impressions?
​​​​​​
Open to other suggestions also.

Thanks
Jason

I know the RV6 downpipe/header is available and there is a nice tutorial on how to install it. Keep in mind I believe it adds rasp to the exhaust notes, if this is of concern do some research. Assuming you have the right tools to knock the rusty bolts loose it looks like a few beer driveway job:

The Skunk2 or RV6 add rasp? I have a 2010 tsx I’m interested in putting a cat less header/downpipe on. But do not want rasp if at all possible

Oh yeah the RV6 deffinetly adds rasp. I had it with the stock exhaust, now I have it with the RV6 test pipe and Greddy Supreme. Still rasp. But I have noticed you hear it more in the cabin then you do outside the car. From the outside it actually sounds really good. Inside night make you cringe. Overall I love the performance tho.
