Default Would you?

Buy this header?

Was looking for a low cost mod that I can bolt on in my spare time.

no ..... if i were you i would look into saving your money for somthing that will last and you know is a quality piece, ... you know the saying ... you get what you pay ... unless you just want to spend the money for the installation exp. ..... if so ... do what ever floats your boat

I agree. You can look around and find a used DC Sports header for $125-$150, and you know it would be better built. Just my two cents.

It's certainly cheap and I wouldn't expect it to stand up all that well over time, looks wise. It may give a slight improvement in power though so if it's in your budget and you want it and you understand what you're getting, go fo it.

If you are looking for something inexpensive, A buddy of mine got a Megan Racing header on Ebay for like $150. It's a very nice piece actually. It has a 2.5" collector and it is 4-1. The runners are pretty beefy as well as the flange.

Agreed, a header is not an expensive upgrade and you definately get what you pay for.

Yeah, guess you're right, I should just wait for when I can get a DC header. Had one on the Accord and it was a real nice piece.
