Hi guys,i have a 96 civic EX,recently i found out that there's a leak in the header,just wanted to know how much does it cost to put a new header and will i gain more horsepower,ne help would b gr8,thx Negi.

read the header FAQ in this section. it should tell you what you need to know. yes you'll gain HP. stay away from the generic ebay stuff ("JDM" "DC style" etc.) however ebay is great for finding name brands at cheap prices.

If you mean how much to have it installed I think you should just do it yourself. All you have to do is unbolt the old one, replace the gaskets with new ones, and bolt the new one up. If you want just a cheap fix then you can get a header off of ebay but don't expect the best performance out of it. If you want max performance then getone frombisimoto, SMSP, DC sports, greddy, or a similar "name brand".

Is it a two piece or one piece? Could just be a blown gasket if it is a two piece. I bought a generic gasket for acura/honda and used a dremel to shape it into the one I needed. Cause megan racing never has any in stock[:@]

going back again I wouldn't have gotten a megan racing one tho. I've gone through 6 gaskets in the course of a year and a couple months. The two pieces are obviously not machined perfectly flat, that's why I'm going through so many.
