    $500 shipped.

      Mild steel.

      Not coated, presently painted flat black.

      Comes with a set of secondary extensions for testing. I'll also include a 2-1/2" flex pipe.

      I need to get some better pics but here's one.

            That's a nice looking header.

            Out of curiousity, what kind of gains can be expected?

              Sort of dropped the ball on this one. I still have the header, I actually recently uncovered it! I would like to move this. Email me at smsp@comcast.net or call 540-287-6384. Thanks.

                  *Edited to not look like a weirdo responding to posts that are no longer there.

                  Good luck with the sale. I'd be all over this if I didn't already have a Genie to hold me over until boost is ready.

                        that's not why people don't make parts for our car's its because our cars were never raced competitively and Honda's are

                        and most people that own them are cheap and dont want to pay for new parts and always post wtb threads for used motor mounts and strut mount ect

                          i agree with having proof of hp gains. a na header is not in the same ballpark as a turbo manifold's theirs allot that go's into fabin a n/a header! scavenging, gas temp ,primary tube lengths ect. they just have to be tuned right. they can flow significantly less than a stock header, if they are not done right.

                          as for the price range of $500. they are not all that bad, but thats if they can prove them selves to be a good design.
