i was looking at headers and i was wondering which is the best?

 

For a 5.0 Mustang JBA and Bassani make some great shorty headers, smog legal too.

(Hint: what car?)

 

thanks mike ill look at those if me and my stepdad ever build his five o but im talking about the best hearders for a f22b2 engine non vtec

 

Sugeest you can get the twin can header for f22b prelude. It fits the engine in CD5 with extra 15hp.

 

What trim Accord do you have?

 

i ave a 97 accord lx

 

I don't mean for this to come across like I'm trying to be a dick but I would take the money you would spend on the "best" set of headers for your car and use it to start saving for a motor swap or turbo build.
All the intake, headers and exhaust in the world isn't going to get you any truly appreciable power gains on an f22b2, at least not the kind of power gains that will put a smile on your face.

 

Intake header and exhaust makes minimal power on the F22B2. However it does make the car a bit more sporty sounding and it does move the power band up a bit in the RPM range. Gives it an almost VTEC hump at 3500-4500RPM when you wind out the gears. At least mine did. well worth the money for a daily driver if don't want to have to rebuild every 2 years or spend $5k on parts.



Generic air intake with Ractive cone filter
Middle of the road Tucan/Ractive 4-2-1 thick wall header (DC Sports would be today's equivalent, they seem to have shorter primaries than mine do though)
Accel 255cc injectors
Bosal 2.5" cat back exhaust

 

Agree what Ghost said.

 

i have a cd5 f22b2 also and ive been looking into getting a CAI,header, and cat exhaust. my question is should i go with a package from option racing that i found on andysauto.com or should i go with apexi exhaust skunk2 heads, and injen CAI?

 

Jasmin headers are nice bro.. 4_2_1 with a cat delete.. Make sure its bolt on if you don't have a smog shop.. Get a 3" cat back.. These guys are right tho to bro.. You wanna get an H22 jdm engine.. They offer alot more hp.. F22 offers about 330 hp, vtec gives around 350 & H22 swap gives 420hp.. More or less on those numbers.. You can swap for about 3000$ but until then bro.. Don't hesitate to start building your ride, you have plenty of time.. Thats the cool thing about being a car enthusiast, you can build what you like and start all over!! If you have the money ofcoarse.. Good luck man!!

 

Alot of being like keeping everything -CAI the same brand name.. Skunk 2 is nice.. But so is Apexi its really up to you man.. Check out some vidz on you tube with your similar ideas and see where you wanna go with it.. Once you get a muffler welded on bro, its notcoming off so explore your sound options before buying..

 

can you point me in the direction of these motors you are talking about??

 

People commonly swap H22A1's into our vintage Accords, this swap would require an H22A1 ECU (or a chipped P28 ECU) and the VTEC wires manually fed into the engine bay but otherwise is a semi-direct bolt up. They originally came in the BB1 Preludes, which you have an F22B2 which is a single cam non-VTEC motor that came stock in your Accord.
