You do know that that isn't really a Spoon Sports header right?
As far as the ongoing debate on header vs headers,
Header typically refers to the whole unit, like was previously mentioned.
In my mind, if it has multiple cylinder banks then it is entitled to have headers.
If not then it has a header.
This is because a header is a term used to differentiate a standard exhaust manifold from an aftermarket exhaust manifold, but functionally it is heading the exhaust into the exhaust pipe. Since one cylinder head typically has one complete unit peforming this function, and we can't route part of the exhaust and not all of it, it is referred to in the singular.
A HEADER routes the exhaust from one bank of cylinders into the rest of the exhaust system.
HEADERS route the exhaust from mulitple banks into the rest of the exhaust system.
Of course, because of the coloquial (socially accepted) use of the term header and headers, referring to it as a header will go a long way toward earning respect from other tuners, something that every Honda guy could certainly use. Besides, the only ones who typically use that term are noobs, and mainly Honda ones at that.
Even the people who build them refer to them as a header.
Of course, I could just be making stuff up.
You can use whichever term you want, but one makes you sound like you don't know as much about cars.
