    our car only has one header, not two
    if you don't want to attract police attention just go for the midpipe

    your answer is a header

    but really on a stock engine messing with the exhaust isn't going to give you much gains. You will lose power in the low range and gain some in the middle to high range. So if you are doing stop and go driving, mostly, then you will be slower than stock. You will be a lot louder though.

    my ep3 currently has aem cai + HP header with stock mid-pipe.
    Because of an 02 sensor problem, ive recently changed my catalytic converter to an aftermarket brand, but it is a direct fitment.

    anyways, the car is already loud because the resonator had been deleted.
    but i love the deep tone it has

    my cousin is getting his k24 swapped in plus turbo,
    and he is giving me his old 2.25" mid-pipe.
    it'll cost me 60 bucks to have it installed.

    he says it'll sound a lot deeper.

    Will i gain or lose anything from this?

    why do people try to make something it is not. run a simple rh, test pipe and 2.5" exhaust on a K20a3...

    If you pay $2300 for a header, you are a moron.

    You want to know why? N/A lacks, especially in an I4; moreover in a heavy, full trim car; and finally, on a nearly stock K20A3 engine.

    I ran an almost identical setup with my GS-R Civic with a guy's GS-R. Our difference was he had a DC 4-1 and I ran an AN-R 4-1. My header, new, was $400ish more and guess what? It made maybe 6-7 peak WHP over the DC.

    (I only used it because I got it dirt ass cheap on a trade btw.)

    What is it with people on this site and buying really expensive shit that does nothing but cost money?

    It's like an epidemic here. I really have a hard time believing people are that stupid, but I'm losing faith.
