Yeah, exactly what are your supporting mods?

As for drag header, I assume you mean DC Race Header.

When I was NA I went from a DC shorty to a DC Race Header and noticed mostly mid range. It was definately a great improvement not only in performance but sound. I wouldn't classify it as earth shattering improvement but definately a few hp.

A shorty header is really a waste of money. All race headers which eliminate the cat. will gain the most power/tq. If you are looking for a decent header you may want to look at sixsigma automotive, Toda, or the more affordable dc. The shorty header actually nets you a total of -1 hp and either +2-3 tq as stated in what i recall Super Street.

How do get around emissions testing and the O2 sensor setting off your check engine light?

Option 1 - Take it off and put the stock parts back on for emissions testing. In other words, don't sell your stock ****.

Option 2 - Use an electronic O2 simulator to fool the ECU.

Option 3 - Use spark plug defoulers to slightly change how the stock O2 sensor mounts to the pipe, fooling it into seeing a flow similar to a catalytic convertor. This is the so-called "mechanical O2 sim".

Option 4 (maybe) - You might be able to install Hondata K-Pro and really screw around with things to avoid the check engine light.

Option 5 - Ignore the check engine light.

ok but then how would you pass your inspection? is the kpro capable of fooling the diagnostic computer that shops use to test your car?
