Aftermarket Header , what is out there?

[HondaBoy]

well i've decided on a header and not the springs and shocks i had thought of. i'll probably get those in the winter semester when i have suspension/steering and alignment class at school. so for now i think a header is easy and in the right price range. i'm deciding to go with a pacesetter. of course i'm going to want the ceramic coated one, but i really havent quite decided on which one to go with. i saw the blue ceramic coat and i was pretty drawn to that. kinda different and i like that. anyway, either way i have to get the ceramic coated one for here where i live with the salt air and humidity.

how much is the blue one

[HondaBoy]

$275.92 for the blue ceramic finish, $292.79 for the silver ceramic finish. not too sure about the black painted one, but i'm guessing $160-$180 which isnt bad if you just want it basic. i really like the blue one though, just for the fact that i dont see other people with this. and the price is cool. i dunno, but help me decide because my mom is wanting to get it for me today online. good b-day present huh?

[sinisterfuzzy]

i vote for the silver one...

[ghettogeddy]

blue babyt and when i have the money ill have on to so u wont be alone

[MessyHonda]

that is too much money for headers...with that price you can get a used Dc header that already comes with the coating....i have a pacesetter the black one....all that coating is just to save them for shelf life and once you put it on the car it will peal off....i picked up a can at autozone for headers...it says ceramic paint...rated for 2000F....i have to grind them down and spray some on.

the extra long ones are high rev race headers, if you get one you will want to be inint it al lot of err all the time dude, try and get DC they have to be used traders only ,not made,... eventually somebodyis gonna tell us they are making them for everyone. GEEEZ , jesse james makes one for every vehicle on his shows.. I like the silver one pacesetter.

How much would you pay for a DC Sports Header? I might be willing to sell mine.

[MessyHonda]

250+ shipping

Only the black painted ones are the ones that peel off the other ones last longer, the black one is not ceramic paint. Thats why there is a price difference between the coated header (blue/silver) and the uncoated (black).

[BITESIZE]

I got my ceramic one for $180 shipped new off of ebay.

I tried to find a blue one, too much money.

[87lxiaccord]

i like the blue set they're unique and kinda cool

[Xtreemjedi]

Ceramic are better, they block up to 50% more heat from the under-hood area than the chrome or pilished versions. That is the standard for all headers.

[B16KILLA]

oh so NOW you people are starting to like the blue header. Mine is blue and I've heard from several people that it's rice.

[MessyHonda]

yeah i never knew that they made blue ones....well they still cost too much money since the welds become britle and crack

too ricer?????
Hey I dent see anybody say that on this thread, who are you gonna listento HOnda boy?
true beware of the pacesetter, very bad port matching and bubble gum welds. also I have seen teh black ones advertised as being armor coated if that is suppose to be the same as cereamic coated there is something fishy there. I still like the long blue one, it looks like the best one, but may be a boogey man to install.
you shoulda jumped on the DC the guy was offering up, before Messy made him an offer he could not (maynot) refuse.

[HondaBoy]

well i would go for a used DC, but i want it like right now so yeah. i thought the header had a warranty on it? but i do think i'm going to go with the blue ceramic finish. as for the welds, i would hope they arent too bad. i mean pacesetter is a professional company, but you never know until you try something. i've seen them mostly on nissan Z's and chevy's, never saw anything to make me think they were crappy aside from the black paint that flakes off and is usually just left to rust.

ok, just look at it. looks hot. B16KILLA, i guess i never saw your engine pix before though. anyway, i think i'm gonna go for it.

[snoopyloopy]

do the blue

Went to JY this morning and saw a 4g with a dc header on it, also saw a downpipe for 3G LXi, I think it was
Dc it had round insets with rubbery seals.... the rest of the header may have been under the car, it had no wheels on it. motor was gone too. I should have grabbed it, somebody coulda prob used it.

will do Messy, I was thinking the dang thing had four bolts, my dc has three, but I am not absolutley sure. I will go tommorrow and get it,
i got what I thought was a cupholder but it sure looks more lke a cassette holder where do the cups go lol need somewhere to keep cups and phone.
.
Truely the only cupholder I have seen in JY is in the 90 model 4gee, that fold out type. but the shifter console is totallly different.
funny story, while I was at this JY,there is a metal recycler, all teh crackheads take stuff that aint bolted down and cash it in, metal is way up here now, you can get 2-3 hundred cash for junk cars, full size... some crackhead was hauling in a two post rotary lift that looked fairly new, the kind you can bolt up at home with enough ceiling clearance and six inches of concrete... I almost turned around and caught him but hell I didnt have the cash he was fixin to get for it then.. dang it.

[sinisterfuzzy]

has anyone on here tried an S&S Header?

[snoopyloopy]

will do Messy, I was thinking the dang thing had four bolts, my dc has three, but I am not absolutley sure.
