In search for headers
I知 looking to make good power on my 6th gen accord 5-speed but i知 having trouble trying to find good quality headers i can run on a F23 motor. Any suggestions ? Rarely anything out there for F series.
DC Sports , as an example, makes headers for a F23 engine.
But to be frank,you are not going to make any power from any headers on a stock motor.
You could swap on an H23 intake and maybe do a cam like a bismoto and then do the valvesprings.
Otherwise, just go add a turbo for real increases in power.

look here for what people have done for power mods that worked, not exhaust/air intake nonsense (I mean if you like noise but don't care about power, or just the looks, that's fine, just telling you you won't see any real power gains on stock motor).

Look at something like this for a turbo idea:

Headers will make almost absolutely no difference in sound (not that youve said thats what your after) and almost no notable power gains. Unless you have a very carefully designed custom header, which would make like 3 or 4 more hp, be expensive and even then, your going to make no power increase unless you have a tunable ECU and run the car on a dyno with a custom mapped tune just for your car.
To make power without nitrous or a turbo system, you need make upgrades that allow the engine to either breathe better or burn more fuel, headers are just a small piece of that. Things like ported and polished heads, cams, air intake & manifold upgrades, ignition system upgrades, freer flowing exhaust system etc. Making N/A power (naturally aspirated, no forced induction), is really difficult, expensive and unless you go all out, doesn't yield that much power.
You can spend $3k upgrading your engine N/A and make MAYBE 50 more hp. But to be honest there are people that have the $ and know-how to make an extra 120hp, it just take ALOT.
Basically most people either spend a minimal amount of $ upgrading their N/A engine and make hardly any increase in power (but live happier) or spend a decent amount of $ building a basic turbo kit system that will make very noticeable power gains. You can turbo your stock engine and make close to 275-300hp for around $2,500 if you do it right.
