alright ppl. dont flame the newb.

do a search. there are plenty of answers to your question.
different headers fit differently on each trim level and sedan/ coupe configuration.

No need to search, just ignore him.
Since you're interested in a header, I'm sure you're looking to improve performance. There are a few out for our cars, but the ones that provide the most gains are the HP Racing 4-1 header which is available with a high flow cat, and the Kamikaze (sp?). These are both full headers. Bombz and DC Sports also make a header for our cars......then there are a ton of knock offs on e-bay. The HP Racing and Kamikaze are the best by far. The only bad thing is that if you live in cali or other places where they're strict on emissions, you probalby won't be able to pass with the HP Racing....I'm not sure about the Kamikaze.

If you have an DX/LX and no exhaust yet, I would really recomend getting an EX exhaust. (Either DC Sports twin canister system or Greddy or Tanabe). Yes, if you get an EX exhaust, it wont fit when you get it, but then you can get the HP race header with high flow cat, which is meant for a direct bolt up fit to an EX. You would have no cat, but great performance. You could just swap your stock system back in for emmissions, and swap it back out when you pass.

Since you have a EX, and if it is automatic, my suggestion is for you to put at HP Racing header (4-1). If you have a 5-speed then you can still put the header on but would need to shave the motor mount.

Good Luck.
