Ebay headers?

[exexexex]

I just had a search on ebay for headers.Most of them are under 100 USD buy now and they are all like stainless stell and chrome ones.Look good,but........ are they gonna be ok to put on? I calculate the price after shipping was only like 180 CAD,yet to buy a DC Ceramic one from the local supplier will cost me 427 CAD plus tax.That's a very hugh difference.Is it worth the buck or just the name? I have done the Intake,now is the H and E,I am wondering I should leave my A6 manifold in and get some nice cat backs or upgrade both? Money wise.Any idea guys or anyone have tried some other brand lower priced headers?

O,btw,I became a member after this post,not new comer,lol

Unless you have a v6 accord you cannot buy headerS for the cb7 . But IMO the ex header is probably the best header for the f22a NTM cheaper. I wouldn't waste your money on a aftermarket header unless you have a lot of other work done to the car.

I would take that 100 bucks and get your throttle body bored out...you will get more tq and hp . Sending mine out next week .

Check out www.maxbore.com the guy does AWESOME work; if you're interested.

yeah man,I took a look already,great job! How much hp and tq can be gained? I might arrange my time cauz if I do that there would be like a week I can't drive.

Typically with a bored out TB you will get better acceleration and better throttle response NTM more air into the engine thus increasing performance.

My guess would be 4-5whp .

As far as not being able to drive for a week, do like I did and buy a used one in decent condition from a junkyard or from someone parting out their engine (thanks again accordtunerx ).

The only thing you will need it a new throttle body gasket and f22a1/4/6 should all be interchangable .

Its just my suggestion

Yea there are more pics in his thread on h-t....but the f series TB stock is 60mm and it gets bored out to 64mm .

whats the stock bore of the h23??? also would it be better than the f22 bored out tb??

[Fearit22]

Well back on topic the ebay DC sports imitation headers are pretty good. I have the chrome ones on my car. You can check out my member's ride profile for a couple pics of them.

I have an ebay header on my H22, with a full exhaust and it sounds just fine!

[slobluaccord]

just buy my ex header with manifold, downpipe, and flexpipe(cut right before cat) for 20 plus shipping!


Thats right .......20 bucks. This crap has GOT to go!!!!

How much is a throttle body gasket? Where do i purchase one?

[accordztech]

why not just get a h23 throttle body that really is a bored f22...?? cheaper

but i dont get throttle body boring....cause like u bore it cool, more air more power, but the intake plenum hole is still the stock size so it limits the boring in the first place.

Cokinut told me that the h23 tb wont fit. And im gonna upgrade the intake manifold.
