Default Is it alright to just slap on a header with no catback for the time being?

I just got a killer deal on a apexi header for three hundred shipped brand new, but I was wondering if it's ok to throw it on since I'm not going to get a catback for a while(2-3 months) because of the broke status that I'm in. Oh ya I got aem cai on it. And I got some ctr cams sitting underneath my bed, that are going to be installed as soon as I get a catback. Let me know whats up.

Why dont you just buy it and hold on to it like all your other goodies till you get the cat.

I have a DC 4-2-1 on my Integra. I dont have any other mods. It wont HURT to have it on. In fact, I gained just a little bit (in my mind, i know!)...

Header w/ no aftermarket exhaust is fine. When I read the title, I thought you meant no catback exhaust at all. I would've you that it's fun for 15 minutes, then you'd need earplugs.

There's no CARB # on my A'PEXi header.
