Got my racing header in!! *PICS*
Well, I dont know why but this was a bigger pain in my a$$ then Bluenvy's. I got a header the same as HP just without the HP name, oh and I can get them now if anyone is interested. I of course cut the motor mount cause dropping the the motor is kinda alittle to much work but after all the cutting I did I may have been wrong. the mount on my car a 2001 EX Sedan seemed to be bigger the Bluenvy's 2001 LX Coupe. Well, here are some pics for you to looks at. Hope you all like.

Rep Power: 0 pardon the ignorance but is your header a 4-1 or 4-2-1?
also does it have a merge collector? what are the size of the primaries? and what is the size of the outlet connecting to the cat or test pipe?

You can get em? Well then, I have a few questions:
Can I JUST get the downpipe? considering I have a DC Sports upper piece already. How much is jus the downpipe (if I can). Will it fit well in my 01 EX coupe automatic, I dont want any cutting.
After taking off the old stock pieces Im sure like most ppl u observed the two, is the downpipe larger than stock? well, my question is: whats the difference between the stock and the racing one u have, it replaces the cat convertor right?
Thanks SO MUCH
Lou
btw: nice lookin car

Rep Power: 0 what did you use to cut that piece off with? on a scale of 1 to 10, how difficult was this? that piece you cut off looks like some sort of mount or bolt hole or something. does it have any function? just curious.

Rep Power: 0 I cut the front motor mount. I used a hacksaw but it got to the point where we had to use just the blade then we had to use a file the rest of the way. As for how much work. Pain in my a$$. The whole thing took about 7 hours. But I think it was well worth all the work.

Rep Power: 0 you didn't answer all of my questions [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-confused.gif[/IMG]
ok so its a 4-1 race header got that part, but what is the size of the primary length (the pipes)? does it come with a merge collector? and what size is the outlet ? 2.25? 2.5? etc
did you use a cat? if so what brand? got any pics of underneath the car?

Rep Power: 0 That is basically the hp header without the name. I am pretty much certain that the only difference is the spot on the tube for the 02 sensor. I talked with a guy from the civicstore.com about them. I just don't like the bolt sitting there but the gains should be the same as they are probably made by the same people.

Rep Power: 0 For those of you out there who r against choping your front motor mount to hell, you should check out power cores down pipe and race cat w/o the header.... It fits perfectly and no cutting....... It gives you the most HP for your buck!!!! i haven't found a header that is really great for HP gains yet and as for "14HP on the header down pipe" I really can't believe that sorry!!!!
