Kamikaze header (Yes, I did a search)

I have no found any info from my searches, only found 2 topics. Will have to replace the cat if I get one of these? If anyone has this header, PM me. I'd like to get this. So far, what I know is that it's a direct replacement that requires no moifications and has O2 sensors. I'd like someone with experience with this header to let me know how this sounds and if it's worth it.

Sup buddy, I have the Kamikaze header..and I installed it myself. I think that it is defintely worth it. The look, sound quality, and my self-esteem have greatly inproved. I would reccomend that you already have an intake, and exhaust though.

Improves self-esteem eh? She has been a little depressed. Actually I was looking for your handle on here cause I saw your post on how good the header is. Do you have the ceramic or chrome? Did you have to replace the cat?

Does the Kamikaze header go well with a Hari Kari intake and Banzai catback? [IMG]i/expressions/laugh2.gif[/IMG][IMG]i/expressions/laugh2.gif[/IMG]

I am almost positive that they will fail. After all, they don't have a catalytic converter. I'm not too concerned since my state doesn't do emissions tests.

Here's the email address for information on the Kamikaze header.Kamikaze Email They should email you back and give some info. The emailed me. I tried to attatch the email they sent me the file was too big to attatch. I'm just not used to the whole file attatchment system on this site yet.[IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-confused.gif[/IMG] Practice makes perfect I guess. Hope this helps. Later

No it comes with the plugs for all stock 02 sensors.


And people it does not have a cat. And in state other than california, and New York (I say these states because they are the strictest on emissions laws), the header with out the cat will more than likely pass an emissions test, because civics are already put so little polution that by running with out a cat you are putting out about the same amount of polution as a chevy or ford truck. And it will pass the emissions test. And also in most states they only run emissions tests on certain year cars. I think it cars that are '96 or older. Newer cars they don't run emissions test at all, except in California, New York or Maryland. You will get a emissions test no matter what year the car is.

from what ive heard the dc sports header isnt worth the money you pay.. its almost the same size as the ex model oem header. i got a meagan racing header shorty and i love it i also gutted my cat to compliment my i-h-e..
i definately felt a big diff. in throttle response and it deffinately revs alot faster with my combo.
my full exhaust and header is also ceramic coated

the mil eliminator is an o2 simulator. and i think he means that it comes with the plugs to put the o2 sensor

that is why you need the o2 simulator they will fail you if your cel is on automatically.

plus with a simulator your car will run the right fuel map for your cars engine. which is good

wannabfast sells o2 simulators for like20$ or something holla at him he makes em himself

if you only found two threads you must really not have searched and just been lazy and said you searched.
