    Chikira Header?????

    Hey guys
    Has anyone heard of a Chikira header??? I'm prolly not spelling it right, but I can get one at a pretty decent price. Quality is supposed to be about the same as Pacesetter. If anyone has used one, let me know.
    Thanks........
    I know, I know, why buy something that's poor quality, can't find a DC and all the Pacesetters I find used, people think that they have gold or something and want WAAAYYYY to much.

    my brother has chikara on his civic. their made by hedman headers. their not too bad i guess but i dont know what his civic was with stock cause he bought it with the headers already installed. i have pacesetter and i dont have one complaint yet. my brother doesnt like the way thier put together but thier alot more better than stock. i noticed considerable amount of power gain. but i had to slightly modify them.
