MERGED...HP headers

[2k2civicSi]

thanks

[2k2civicSi]

can any one help???? please
the pic at nopi shows 2 pieces

[02SilverSiHB]

I think all headers are 1 piece, seeing how it's just the manifold that is replaced and not the down pipe. If you meaning if it's a 4-1 or 4-2 design, I believe JSIR said it's a 4-1

[02SilverSiHB]

well, I looked at a post of JSIR's and yes, it's a 4-1

[JSIR]

and they are one piece, NOPI's description is all screwed up , they show a pic of a b-series header. Our headers are exceptionally short and one piece.

I GUESS YOUR GETTING NEW HEADERS. WHEN?

[ssvr6]

I don't think so, it might discolor, but that's about it.

the chrome ones will only rust if the chrome flakes off, but they seem like real sturdy pieces, should last as long as the stock ones I think. They are coated externally. Usually ceramic headers are coated internally too, depending on what brand. The chrome ones look very similar to stainless IMO, not a bad piece. The HP ceramic are hard to acquire from my experience as well as others.

for install of this header becuz its for the RSX base model do you need a RSX Donut Gasket ? i read that in HCI becuz they installed a Ractive one for the Civic Si from the base RSX

[JSIR]

no you don't need the RSX gasket as it's the same as ours so just re-use the stock one, just be sure to order the header from the base RSX not the RSX-S.
