The biggest sacrifice is probably not going to be effectiveness but quality.

dude i just got the exact same one for my crx with a b16, my opinion quality is good welds look ok not the best had a little trouble getting the second pice on but nothing a little work cant do. what i dislike about it is that it sit very low on my crx. other than that its best bang for the buck for me.

its a bitch to put together but i made really good power with it. def worth the money. I don't think a header under $400 will even touch it in terms of power.

Because they are manufactured in taiwan and arent the best in quality, sometimes dont match up. No biggie though.

ive been looking at these headers to and they look like they are worth the money, would it be better to get this header or a JDM ITR header if its about the same price?

I ordered that exact one from the exact seller, fitment was complete ****. Im serious. I mocked it up, and didnt even start the car before I removed it and sold it. It didnt clear my A/C compressor either. I had to unbolt it just to mock it up. It probably stuck out under the oil pan like 2-3 inches and would have been crushed at the first decent bump in the road probably, plus my blox test pipe I had bought was too long to fit with the exhaust with this header, all together I just decided to sell it. Im sure it flowed fine and for $125 would have been a great header as far as use goes, but the quality and fitment is too big of a issue with it from what I seen.

Got the header today, the fitment isnt the greatest but not really a big deal to make fit. 2 of the tubes dont line up but with a bit of prying you can make them fit eazy. Overall for 100bucks im happy with it.

You might want to weld the 2pcs together, since they tend to leak.
