Headers Update - 5/26/2008 9:39:34 PM    03Sleeper   Posts: 1926 Joined: 6/15/2006 Status: offline Hey gang, an update here. I'm ditching my OBX Type R headers (crack in weld...) and I just brought DCSports Ceramic Headers. Will install once I get them!

Its cheaper to just have them sand blasted, rewelded, and recoated. All of which you can do for under $50. _____________________________ Accord Mafia Member #001 (in reply to 03Sleeper) Post #: 6

The TR is sluggish as hell and I think I only gained torque from the headers.

RE: Headers Update - 6/8/2008 6:39:49 PM    03Sleeper   Posts: 1926 Joined: 6/15/2006 Status: offline Well, good news. My ECU has offically learned that it has AFTERMARKET headers. Performance is back to normal. Though I did empty Prestone 0-60 Octane Boost into the gas tank....which is extemely bad. ><'''''' On the down side, the car revs really high now....prolly have to take it out for 15 rides before everything gets back to normal. At least, that''''s what some people are telling me. < Message edited by 03Sleeper -- 6/8/2008 6:41:16 PM > _____________________________ 2003 Accord LX Sedan I4| 5AT 107000 Injen SRI w/ AEM Dryflow| DCSports Ceramic Headers| DENSO IK20 Sparks| CF Front Strut Bar| Pioneer TSG950M 6x9s| Alpine SPS17C2 6.5"| C-Tek Slotted/Drilled Rotors | Progress 24mm Rear Sway Bar (in reply to Fenix) Post #: 15
