Not too many aftermarket accessories for the J30 engine. I have a 98 accord V6 as my second car and Im planning on making a turbo manifold from OEM headers. I fabricated my exhaust by cuttinf my stock muffler's flange and welding it to a catback. Then I connect it with the flange(cat converter still on) nice deep exhaust with the strong V6

There is not a lot to pick from. it hasn't been too long ago that you couldn't get anything at all, you would have to weld up your own if you wanted headers for the J-series. looks like DC Sports makes a set. part# HHC5528.

later model J-series have a single port per bank so headers aren't really a thing. the best place for improvement there is a "J-pipe" there are several makers of these. some may also make versions that fit your car and include the header as well. do a search for J-pipe and see what you find.

There are headers for the J30A1 all over Ebay.

I'm seeing sets without the flex pipe in the front (OLDER DESIGN), and sets with the smaller flex pipe in the front (NEWER DESIGN). Which ever set you get, I highly suggest you have someone go over the welds on the primaries. Those welds are usually the ones that will fail on these cheap sets.

As long as you don't live in a city with high salt content on the road in the winter, they should last you pretty good while.
