retail is like 378$'s for brand new, thay have been used for 4 months...

sorry i forgot to mention, its for a 5th gen 94-97 accord...

and im going for the 4-2-1 because i have a auto and daily street driving in NY which i rarely go over 80mph so im really looking for low end,

and yea the bent part is not AS bas as it looks i nthe pic, its really just scraped up badly, but the dents not as bad as it looks...looks like a door ding in person...

well eventually imma get headers, just wondering was that headers worth the bucks, like any other honda fanatic, the car could be at 80hp, you wouldve still bought a intake,headers, or some lil bolt on even if you know it wouldnt do much hp right? if headers are a waste of cash, are intakes exhaust system a waste also? all they do are minor 5-10 hp in total... something even if you have a manual car you can "barely" feel...

well for my car i have a p&p head,cai,catback, just trying to push every litttle hp i can out of the guy, if you guys have accords the weight to these suckers are a downfall.. so every little gain is something i wouldnt mind spending a little to get...

Why do you keep calling them headers? Youd don't have a V or boxer engine, do you? It is called a header!!!

I wouldn't buy it. The only reason I bought a Greddy piece for my car is for the ease of installation. I would of much rather bought the Comptech header down at Acura, but install requires cutting.

There are much better exhaust manifolds out there. Save your cash and do it right the first time...

well to make it nice and simple everyone knows what i mean when i say "headers" kind of like hearing alot of people saying "v4" mean while its i4 its not the right term but u understand what the person means...excuse me for not calling it a "exhaust manifold".

Since you're looking at a set of headerS for 250, that's a great deal. Hopefully the second header isn't banged up at the bottom.
