I bought a DC 4-2-1 header, ditched the cat, had a custom mid pipe made and bolted up DC sports cat back. All EX parts on a VP

Re: will headers fit on a lx motor?

imo, spending ~$1000+ (I/H/E) for a few HP (5-10HP) is not worth it.

if you have a lx, doing a headswap for like ~$300 will get you 10+ HP (and vtec)

anyways, turbo/swap is the only viable option for power

Re: will headers fit on a lx motor?

What does this have to do with issues or repairs? And if you maybe tried searching, you would know the answer to that question already. Lazy, I swear.

That you're posting questions that've already been answered a million times in the wrong forum. Why do you have barely over 100 posts and negative rep?

On a totally non car related note, I like your sig. I'm a huge Mario Puzzo fan.

Seriously though, use the search feature.
