Default Is this a decent header?

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors...7.m29

I am not too worried about hp gains, the car used to have a turbo before I bought it and they just threw the car back together cheaply, has a civic header or something on it now and there is no spot for a 02 sensor. Just need a decent cheap header to use until I get a turbo kit put back on.

Looks decent. Just keep in mind you get what you pay for.

Should be fine as long as it's temporary.

yea as long as its a temporary you should be fine, just looks like a no name brand header, just remember it has a 1 year warranty on the header!

What about the 02 sensors? Wouldn't it mess up my car not having them? The engine doesn't know exactly how much fuel to put into the motor.

If you don't care about performance then why not get an oem header? It will run you around that price and you can't beat the quality and reliability, as it is oem.

The current one doesn't have 02 sensor slots.

just take it to a local shop and see if they can weld on a 02 bung into the header where the stock one belongs.

Not sure, it is not from a integra though. It does have a civic exhaust for sure though.
