Default Who has put comptech TSX header in k20R EG?

I'd like to know who has put a Comptech TSX header in a k20R EG? Any fitment
issues? Like hitting or touching the intermediate shaft? Any pic? Thanks.

I don't know this for sure but I think the Comptech header may have clearance issures in an EG Civic with a K20R motor. I've heard about about EK Civic's with K20 motors that had to custom make a header to clear.

With the Hasport mounts the Comptech header fits, but hangs down below the rear engine crossmember about two to three inches lower than would be ideal. Hasport is working on a header to work with our mount kits but it is still a few weeks out.

so it would be good for a K24 swap? what about a stock TSX header? i might look into doing this a temporary alternative to spending over $1000 on a custom header.

The car we tried the Comptech TSX header on was Brian "fastbrakes" Hasty's car, which is an EG with a K24, and it hung too low. His car now has the prototype of the Hasport header on it. The Hasport header should be no more than $499 retail price. The Comptech TSX header is the only other header we have tried on a car.
