Why when I look for 3g headers in the header info it says that they are only for fuel injected cars?? My question is if a carb accord can have a performance header. I'll appreciate any answer

Carburated Accords can use a performance header. I think Pacesetter may even make different header versions (carb/efi) for our cars (not sure). The only real problem is usually the O2 sensor holes. Carbs only use one O2 sensor and certain FI models have two sensors. If you get a header with two holes, you'll need to devise a plug for the second hole. Other than that issue, the header mounts the same to the engine.

Some headers don't have a pipe for the Air suction valve... they only have a pipe for the EGR...

If you don't live in an emissions testing state then any header will be okay.

bingo, exactly what mike said. THe air suction hole is right next to the EGR hole. Even tho using a DC sports, u can disable the Air suction hole, but u wont be passing emissions anytime soon. ;)
