Default Who runs a Comptech Race header here?

If you have dynos I'd love to see them as well. I have two here and am contemplating keeping one for myself.

Me. I don`t have my dyno numbers handy, but I like it. Fit and quality are second to none.

I have one and love the power gains during high rpms, the only problem that i have is it hangs way too low. I am making a plate to help protect my header on the street. I currently have a post in the allmotor forum going. https://honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=649197 No dyno numbers though, but it makes a big difference, especially when the car is running strong.

I currently run one and will be switching to a custom SMSP.

I am not happy at all with the false claim on clearance. I was under the impression that it was a well engineered piece with awesome fit. The picture on their website should say, picture not drawn to scale. I've already dented mine. Nothing against Comptech, Nate at Comptech told me to send it back for repair which I will be doing after I aquire a regular header to run. If that isn't excellent customer service, then I don't know what is. Those guys at Comptech are good people. Then afterwards the header is going up for sale for anyone who is interested.

Yes, Nate and the whole staff at Comptech are great people to work with.

I currently own one by it is not on my car at the moment, waiting for my clyinder head to comeback. However, quality of the product is top notch. As far clearances goes, don't know yet.

Yeah, thats another reason I ended up getting header, EKs' and EGs' are somewhat the same chassis.

I know I wasn't the only one experiencing the problem. I literally had to raise my car back up from previous drop to accomodate the hanging header. There are some things in life that needs to hang, but a header shouldn't.

Tweakmeister, fit the header up to your engineand let us know how the clearance looks. What kind of exhaust are you going to run with it?
