Default Mugen Install + *a rare golden header pic*

The comparison Mugen to stock. *I noticed the weight of the two to be remarkably different (mugen much lighter.) Other that that the pics speak for themselves.


After installation. And before the gases flowed.



The A-pipe Install


One run and I've got GOLD!

When my buddy uploads his pics I'll tell the story of my install.
Questions, comments, and flames welcomed.

Yep, that's what mine looks like too!

I noticed that it sounds about the same as stock until you reach the vtec crossover point and then it sounds louder than stock, but in a good way!

One effect that I didn't expect was the way my steering become a little lighter and quicker. Have you noticed this effect or am I just crazy? I'm guessing it's from the decrease in weight compared to stock.

Nice Choice!

Nice header.......I'd like one if it had a "carb" number for it. Probably need a HF 2.5" cat to finish off your exhaust system.

No they are a 4-2-1.

I was wondering how long they stayed gold.
I have DC Stainless on my Lude and they turned purple and then black later. Now they are grey like they are covered with ash...nasty.
