no one is being a dbag buddy, dont come onto this forum and act like you run the place. You are a miss informed noob. You are probably one of the people that think a header on a little 4 bagger is going to give you 15-20hp like the box says.

but back on topic, looks like your from texas so im guessing the emission tests arent as strict as california. Megan racing makes a cheap, yet reputable header. DC also makes good headers, but are pricey. Now im going to be honest with you and tell you not to buy one because it isnt going to give you the hp you think your going to get. Spend that money on some wheels or the suspension, or if your serious about performance use that money for a turbo or engine swap.

he is very true...i regret buying the header. it looks nice but doesnt really do what people want them to do. i agree when he says spend it on something like suspension or wheels. dropping the car will make it look 10x better.

on wheels or suspension sounds like a pretty reasonable idea. I'm pretty strapped for cash for an engine swap though. Found alot of aftermarket parts at the junk yard too. These civics are like hotcakes.

I just didnt appreciate the sarcasm. Had 3 people tell me the same thing sarcastically trying to make me look like an idiot instead of helping me. I am very serious about this car. Not turning this car into an all out beast, but I dont want it to be just another average 4Banger either.
