What do you want another header for? Replacement?, performance?, bling?

What engine do you have?

you only have 1 header on your car, and yes they are decent, I like mine.... Just if you purchase one, make sure you do a 2.5" collector mod........probably best bang for buck

OK, well it's among the worst for performance. You have an H22 so you have a lot of options for good headers. Search and you'll find lots more info.

How much money are you willing to spend?

You can find some decent 4-2-1 dc sports headers in ebay.

Which are almost equally as bad as a megan. For more money, if you have an h22 you have some options I wouldn't go with a cheap ebay header.

Problem is: we don't know how much money he's willing to spend, so you can't just tell him "here, go buy a mugen header for $1000, that's your best option".

Even though they offer the same performance, I think a DC header will outlast megan any day of the week. You gotta keep in mind how well your header will cope with punishment too.

The guy that owned my car before has some non namebrand header on there...maybe megan...looks just like my friends megan header without the little nametag. Its been fully abused and still works pretty good...But a header with stock exhaust and a muffler is like a straw with a funnel at each end...does no good

I have a Megan header on my 98 Accord....not too bad. But I did it at the same time as my CAI, test pipe, and full catback so I don't know where the power really came from. Has a good sound though

$300-$400 and you're looking at Greddy money.
