I had purchase headers for my h22 and the headers i purchase was for a 94 prelude. Now they don't fit my 94 accord 4 Dr cat converter or straight pipe which i am planning to do a engine swap into my Accord.

Now, how or Wat is the best way i can make this all work out or would i have to order headers for my 94 accord? PLEASE help

Thank You

you have to modify the H22's downpipe to fit your accord's catback, or vice versa. One way of getting arond that is using the H22 downpipe, CAT, nad a 90-93 accord's catback which will be a bolt on apparently. There was also another bolt on way using a 98 Prelude SH headers which comes with an adaptor for something but I forgot how that goes.

yea i was gonna use my aftermarket headers with the 98 prelude cat converter, but the only thing is dat the ludes converter is alittle shorter then my accords by 2-3 ins. don't know if that will make a difference!!!

did u order it as for n accord or prelude? Cause i ordered my headers for a 94 prelude Vtec engine... i just need to know how to order n wat to order so it will fit my stright pipe!

I ordered it for my engine which is the H22 due to different header ports design. If you order it for an Accord, you'll get a F22 header. Don't go buy the chasis if your H22 is in your Accord, because either way, it'll still needs to be modified to fit your Accord exhaust system.

I notice you're Hmong. I'm Hmong as well.

I still got my No Name brand header that got modified to fit Accord catback. PM me.

tkhang

Yea im hmong man..lol but yea how much u planning to get for those headers? Btw im from Blaine, MN so it dont seem like u too far from me (stp). yea

I can do 110.00 as I paid 120.00 for the modification to fit the Accord exhaust. What year is your Accord?

Dats y I'm doing a CD5 h22 swap too cause too many ppl think Accords aint sht n r too into Hatches!!! Yea i saved u as friend so u should c my request. Yea jux send me pix if the headers n if i like it then i'll take it!! let me know!

Generally you will just take your car down the your local exhaust shop and have your exhaust modified to fit. Probably cost you $20-$30, we do these all the time.

Yo, here's my H22 Ebay header modified to fit the 5th Gen Accord existing exhaust setup:

crx_91si

here's what worked for me.

1st I ordered a header for a 98 Prelude Vtec

2nd I ordered one of these Honda Accord 90-93 Test-Pipe

3rd I installed the header and found it was much longer then my OEM F23
Measured gap between the down pipe flange (3 bolt offset triangle) and the beginning of the cat back exhaust (3 bolt triangle flange). It was about 6 inches of space

I Then had test pipe cut down and shortened at a local welding/machine shop to fit so it looked like this




worked like a charm. this was my way since i would not sacrifice to cutting up my RS*R cat back

good luck
