why I put my stock headers back on

I'd just like to take the time out to thank megan racing for making such fine of a product. how fine do you ask? here, let me show you



here we see the fine bracket that broke off from my car due to the "stress" that is caused from normal driving







and here we see where the downpipe didnt fit and I had to pay extra to have someone cut and weld it so that it would




thank you megan, you are so awesome on so many levels. I loved driving around sounded like a dieseased farting rocket ship and loved it when my check engine light came on because you were sucking in air. I also loved how I paid for you, then paid to fix your fittament, then paid to have you removed. But most of all megan, I love you.

megan only offers a limited 30 day warranty. Its been longer than that, and they'll prolly give me crap for rewelding it and the fact that I have a CL instead of an accord, whatever. Im just tired and done with this crap and happy that my car finally sounds normal again.

Wow that sucks ass.

Cut the header into bits n pieces, then send it back to them to show how what you think about their "quality" product.

Good luck to you, and enjoy your quieter ride.

I wasn't aware Comptech made one for the 2.2/2.3.. I know they made one for the 3.0.

Justin, I put a good 40K on my DC's and never had one problem. Hopefully you can pick up a better set next time around.

that's megan for ya.

comptech is WAAAYYY overpriced, but still a good product.

you can find something else that works that is midway in between those. I'm sure DC or AEM or something has some good headers out there for ya that aren't as expesive as CT.

Any good or bad words on Stone Racing headers? I think that is what wilp99 had on Precious. Never heard anything bad other than the bend modification issue for fit.

I live at home, my own home, but still, I live at my home. Don't you? I sure don't live at work. But I suppose I could. There are plenty of couches in our building, not to mention I have a kitchen just outside of my office.
